Bill and Yvonne Kahlert first supported GBMC HealthCare in the year 2000. Only four short years later – moved by the care provided by Dr. Ron Tutrone – Bill made a gift to name the William E. Kahlert Cystoscopy Suite and begin a legacy of generous gifting to GBMC.

The Kahlert Family and Foundation, in total, have gifted $13 million to GBMC, becoming one of our largest donors, but it is the passion and dedication with which they give that touches us the most. Their recent gift to name the William E. Kahlert Physicians Pavilion North is yet another example of giving generously to GBMC and their passion for helping their community receive the best and most accessible care possible.

“The Kahlert Family is a wonderful partner to GBMC,” John Chessare, MD, President and CEO of GBMC HealthCare, said, “not only for their gifts but their genuine compassion for others in need. It inspires us each day and the naming of Physicians Pavilion North will be a constant reminder for us."

For centuries, the Women’s Hospital has been dedicated to putting the patient first – a priority it set for its first facility on 25 McCullough Street in 1872 to when it co-formed GBMC alongside the Presbyterian Eye, Ear & Throat Charity Hospital in 1965. It is now taking this sentiment into the next phase of GBMC’s growth with a $2 million gift to The Promise Project.

In addition to serving as Director of Hospitalists and Vice Chief of Staff and practicing medicine with his own patients, Dr. Chris Greenawalt has also taken on additional volunteer leadership roles within the campaign on both the philanthropic and planning sides.

He started with his own investment.

Medicine, It's in the Family
For some physicians at GBMC, a love of medicine runs as deep in the familial veins as brown eyes or a knack for cooking. GBMC is home to several physicians who have inspired their son or daughter to become not just doctors, but doctors at GBMC.

The pandemic shined a bright light on healthcare workers and their essential role in maintaining the health and safety of communities. Dianna Newton, a literacy coach at the SEED School of Maryland and a 23-year veteran teacher, felt the generosity, kindness, patience and humanity of these workers throughout her 18-month cancer treatment five years ago. So, when she saw healthcare workers across the nation struggling with the coronavirus and its effects, she felt a kinship with them and knew she had to do something.
