Batesville, IN—The Margaret Mary Health Foundation recently received a very generous donation from the family and friends of Joe Stirn. More than $6,000 was raised at the 2nd Annual Joe Stirn Memorial Trap and Stillboard Shoot held on November 10, 2019 at the Oldenburg Conservation Club.
According to Joe’s wife Kim, the event was started “as a way to pay tribute to Joe’s memory… he was always giving to others.” The gift will benefit the Cancer Center’s Hope Fund, which provides monetary assistance to patients in need of help with the indirect costs of cancer treatment.
When asked why the family chose to support the Hope Fund, Stirn explained they have experienced firsthand the great care provided to her sister-in-law, Susie Stirn. “It is such a great place of hope and compassion…we chose the Hope Fund because we like the idea of helping the personal needs of patients,” says Kim. “It was our great honor to give back to such a fantastic cause.”
“We appreciate the generosity of the Stirn Family and all those who supported the shoot. Their generosity will enable us to support patients in need and enhance their cancer journeys in ways that make a big difference,” says Mary Dickey, Foundation Executive Director.
