Kettering Health donated more than 400 used and unused hospital beds to Seventh-day Adventist hospitals serving underserved communities in Argentina, Peru, and Paraguay. This endeavor—bringing together a principled ethic of stewardship and sustainability and a commitment to serving others—emerges from a long-standing partnership with Seventh-day Adventist hospitals across South America, demonstrating how practical care can cross continents and transform lives.

The expanded facility is a more than $90 million investment in the health and well-being of Wilmington and the surrounding region. Kettering Health Wilmington will augment the current facility’s primary care services with hospital beds, surgical services, emergency care, specialty care, full-service imaging and infusion for cancer treatment.

The sun beats down on a humid July day. Bruce Kidney stands, his hands full of fresh vegetables, waiting for the door to open at a home in Dayton, Ohio’s Riverdale neighborhood. When it does, he’ll offer the produce.
The vegetables came from the Unity Garden directly behind Kettering Health Dayton.
Sitting on property owned by the medical center, the garden is in a community heavily populated by African refugees placed there as part of its refugee settlement program.
