HNJH – Bingo Purse Event
HELEN NEWBERRY JOY HOSPITAL CELEBRATED ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL PURSE BINGO EVENT IN 2026!
On November 5, 2026, our community came together for an evening of bingo, fun, and the chance to win fabulous purses and prizes, all while supporting a meaningful cause.
Proceeds from this beloved event benefited the residents of Golden Leaves Living Center, helping fund programs and activities that enhance their quality of life.
We were grateful for everyone who participated, donated purses, and helped make this special evening possible. Your generosity and support continue to make a meaningful difference in the lives of our residents.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for another wonderful night of community, connection, and giving back. We look forward to bringing everyone together again next year!
Run for Joy 5K – Run or walk
The community came together once again for the Run for Joy 5K & Walk, bringing runners, walkers, families, and supporters together for a day full of energy, movement, and connection.
This year’s event took place in Newberry on August 22, celebrating another successful day of community involvement and support.
Proceeds from the event support the athletics programs at Tahquamenon Area Schools and Engadine Consolidated Schools, helping create more opportunities for local student athletes.
Thank you to everyone who participated, volunteered, and supported this year’s event! It was a wonderful day celebrating health, teamwork, and community spirit.
Foundation Golf Outing
& Fundraiser
2025’s event raised over $30,000 towards our Health Career Scholarship Fund! This year, event proceeds will benefit our Health Careers Scholarship Program again and invest in the health careers of local students and future employees at Helen Newberry Joy Hospital. HNJH will match 100% of all funds raised from the event. In rural communities, it can be challenging to recruit a healthcare workforce. With our scholarship program, we are making an investment in the future of our facility and bringing young people back to the community.
We are hopeful you will consider supporting this meaningful event. Your participation in our fundraising efforts, through events such as the annual golf event, together with donations from other individuals, businesses, and organizations, helps to ensure that Helen Newberry Joy Hospital can sustain its services to the community for many years to come.
