Carol Gunter, Executive Director
“The most meaningful part of my job is watching fear and uncertainty give way to relief and hope when we step in to meet a need for our patients. That’s why I believe so strongly in what we do because in those moments, I see that we’re not just helping patients survive their journey, but we are also restoring their dignity, hope and strength.”
