Harleysville Bank has pledged $50,000 to Grand View Health Foundation’s This Is Us Together, a campaign that supports critical healthcare infrastructure. Their pledge will support the 190,000-square-foot, six-story pavilion that will be the cornerstone of the expanded Grand View Hospital campus in Sellersville, PA. The pavilion is scheduled to open in summer 2023.

“Harleysville Bank and Grand View Health have both served people in our communities for more than 100 years,” said M. Shane Michalak, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at Harleysville Bank. “We are proud to make this pledge to the Grand View Health Foundation because we know it will positively impact local people for years to come.”

The hospital pavilion project includes 52 private patient rooms, 10 state-of-the-art operating rooms, and a new Emergency Department and rooftop helipad to support Grand View Health’s Level II Adult Trauma Center, the only level II trauma center in Upper Bucks County.

“This pledge from Harleysville Bank will help us strengthen Grand View Health’s level of care even further,” said Sandy Alderfer, Grand View Health Foundation Board Chair and Campaign Chair. “We are extremely grateful for their generosity as we move closer to our campaign goal to raise $14 million.”

Doug Hughes, Interim President and CEO of Grand View Health, added: “The future of healthcare will look radically different over the next few years, and our pavilion project will allow us to adapt with that future and provide our community with the extraordinary care they expect and deserve.”
