Taking advantage of the match fund, the County Seat Tavern hosted a successful fundraising event earlier this month which brought in over $13,000. Diaz Enterprises and Somerset Regional Water Resources both made significant six-figure pledges to the Match Fund.

Coupled with various donations from other community members, over $250,000 has been raised, which means after the Match Fund over $500,000 will go to fund the clinic at the new hospital.The community has raised a substantial amount of money for the project in the past six weeks – but we still have ground to cover to secure the full $3 million potential.
