✨ "The Partners Program has given me the exposure necessary to make an informed decision on what impact I want to leave on the medical community..." ✨

We are deeply inspired by Kamrin, a brilliant local senior and Lexington Health Partners Scholar who spent his July transforming his career dreams into a concrete vision for the future! 🏥💡

Driven by his natural inclination to help others and a personal mission to preserve patient dignity, inspired by watching his family navigate his great-grandmother's journey with dementia, Kamrin entered the program looking for direction. Over three weeks of clinical exposure, he fell in love with two distinct worlds: patient storytelling and advanced medical technology.

🩺This powerful workforce pipeline is made possible by the incredible generosity of donors to the Lexington Health Foundation. Help us empower visionary scholars like Kamrin by visiting our donation page today!

It is with deepest sadness that we share news of the passing of Virginia Gates on August 28.

Virginia bravely shared her cancer story as the keynote speaker for the 2024 McDaniels Gala and as a panelist at the 2024 Women’s Night Out event, helping to raise awareness and raise funds for patients at Lexington Health Cancer Center. She joined the Foundation Board of Directors in 2025 and fully invested her heart and hands into our mission. She was a bright light who led by example - through advocacy, volunteerism, and philanthropy - and she inspired so many. Virginia offered support to every survivor she met and used her personal experiences to help guide new programs and resources in our Cancer Center. Her positivity, compassion, and selfless service have made lasting impacts that will benefit patients and families for years to come.

On behalf of the Foundation team, our Board of Directors, and our Lexington Health leadership, we extend our heartfelt condolences and prayers to her husband, Larry, her two boys Lawson and Coleman, her beloved family and to the countless individuals across our community who knew her and loved her.
