Gift Will Be Recognized by Naming Post-Anesthesia Care Unit
BOCA RATON, FL – March 1, 2022 – The Martin F. Greenberg Family Foundation has made a $1 million gift to
Keeping the Promise…The Campaign for Boca Raton Regional Hospital. Martin F. and Tali Greenberg’s generosity to the hospital through the
Keeping the Promise campaign brings the total funds raised to $224 million toward its goal
of $250 million.
“We are extremely grateful to Martin and Tali for considering Boca
Raton Regional Hospital as a worthy recipient of such generosity,”
said Lincoln Mendez, CEO of Boca Raton Regional Hospital. “Martin’s
reputation as a philanthropist is legendary, and we know our vision is
a profound one if the couple can so enthusiastically get behind it. We
welcome them to our family of donors.”
The Greenberg gift will be honored in the new Gloria Drummond Patient Tower
through the naming of the Martin F. Greenberg and Family Post-Anesthesia
Care Unit (PACU). Located on the second floor within the Center for Surgical
Services, the new state-of-the-art PACU is a well-equipped critical care
unit with 26-bays, isolation rooms, two nurses stations and nourishment stations.
“When I decide to support an organization, it’s really because
it tickles my fancy,” said Mr. Greenberg. “Its mission and
goals need to be sound and impactful. And, just as importantly, its people
need to be worthy. The Hospital and the Foundation…they are made
up of special people…and Tali and I are very appreciative of all
that they do.”
Martin F. Greenberg has been enormously philanthropic, making significant
gifts to Florida Atlantic University, where Mr. Greenberg is a founder
of the FAU football program and helped build the stadium in which they
play, as well as the Mayo Clinic where he is a principal benefactor, along
with St. Jude, the Anti-Defamation League, University of Miami School
of Law and many others.
“We are ecstatic to welcome Martin F. and Tali Greenberg to our Foundation’s
distinguished group of Eminent Philanthropists,” said Stan Barry,
co-chair of
Keeping the Promise. “Their belief in our plans and our vision is gratifying and they
are also spectacular embodiments of philanthropic leaders. We believe
their support underscores Martin and Tali’s appreciation of the
Hospital as a valuable resource in the community.”
The $250 million
Keeping the Promise Campaign is the largest fund-raising initiative in Boca Regional’s
history and is supporting its most ambitious period of growth and expansion.
The campus redevelopment plans include at the centerpiece, the new Gloria
Drummond Patient Tower where patients will be welcomed in the inviting
new Louis B. and Anne W. Green Lobby with plans for retail, dining, meeting
space, a sanctuary, outdoor courtyards and other conveniences for visitors.
The new tower features all new surgical suites and all private patient
rooms exceeding the latest safety standards for patient care. In the current
hospital building, all existing rooms will be converted to private in
a comprehensive renovation of all patient units including maternity, oncology,
and orthopedics. An expansion of the Marcus Neuroscience Institute is
underway with emphasis on neurovascular/stroke, central nervous system
tumors, spine, and epilepsy/seizure disorders. The recently opened 972-car
Schmidt Family Parking Facility will be connected to the Marcus Neuroscience
Institute once the new tower construction is complete. Also, well underway
with dramatic progress on campus is the new Toby and Leon Cooperman Medical
Arts Pavilion with outpatient surgery, physician offices, an Ambulatory
Surgery Center and adjacent parking.
“This leadership gift to Boca Regional is especially meaningful to
me and Tali because it benefits our friends and neighbors,” added
Mr. Greenberg. “Boca Raton Regional Hospital has a great impact
on our community, and we want to do everything we can to support it."
