What if breast cancer treatment could mean less surgery, less pain and a faster recovery? 💗

Dr. Julie Margenthaler, director of Breast Surgical Services at Siteman Cancer Center and the inaugural Endowed Chair for Surgical Excellence in Breast Cancer, is leading a donor-funded study exploring cryoablation. This innovative approach that uses extreme cold to destroy cancer cells and may offer an alternative to surgery for some patients.

Through the support of Foundation donors, research like this continues to advance the future of breast cancer care.

Yesterday, a significant milestone was celebrated with the groundbreaking of Evelyn’s House at Barnes-Jewish Hospital.

Expected to open in 2028, the new 12-bed hospice house will be the first dedicated hospice house in the City of St. Louis, bringing specialized end-of-life care closer to home for more patients and families.

Building on the success of the original Evelyn’s House in Creve Coeur, the new facility will provide a warm, home-like setting focused on comfort, dignity and quality of life during some of life’s most meaningful moments.

This important work is made possible in part by generous gifts through the Foundation, helping expand compassionate, patient-centered care for families across our community.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we recently had the chance to celebrate a major milestone: 40 years of the Siteman Cancer Center Mammography Van. 💗

For four decades, the van has helped bring breast cancer screening closer to home. It’s the longest-running mobile mammography program in the country—and The Foundation for Barnes-Jewish Hospital has proudly supported it from the very beginning.

Part of this celebration included the opportunity to meet Terri Coffman, who has served as a technologist for the van for all 40 years, starting with the very first one. Her passion is a beautiful reminder that behind every program and every number are people who make the impact possible.

Last Saturday, BJC HealthCare's Community Baby Shower brought together more than 100 birthing families, community organizations, clinical care teams, and volunteers to support new and expecting families across the St. Louis region. 💙

As part of the Foundation's commitment to improving the health and well-being of the communities we serve, we’re proud to support an event that connects families with health education, wraparound services and essential maternal and infant care resources.

Thank you to the many partners including Healthy Blue Missouri, Home State Health, Together Credit Union, Evernorth Health Services, as well as our donors, colleagues, and volunteers who make moments like these possible!

Congratulations to the 84 Believe STL Academy juniors who declared their healthcare career pathways last week during the first annual Student Declaration Day! 🩺💙

The milestone marks an important step as students identify the healthcare careers they’re interested in pursuing and continue preparing to become the future caregivers our community needs.

Over the past several years, our Foundation team has been honored to help launch this first-of-its-kind initiative alongside BJC HealthCare, BELIEVE, and The Opportunity Trust. With a transformational gift from Bloomberg Philanthropies and generous donors through The Foundation for Barnes-Jewish Hospital, students are gaining valuable exposure, training, and hands-on experiences to prepare for careers in healthcare.

Yesterday, we celebrated the opening of LIV Sober Living's new women’s recovery home, a meaningful step forward in supporting mothers and families in our region. 💙

A heartfelt thank you to Healthy Blue Missouri for its generous $500,000 investment and steadfast commitment to improving maternal and infant health outcomes. We’re also grateful to LIV Sober Living for bringing this vision to life with compassion and purpose.

Together with BJC Community Health Improvement and our community partners, we are demonstrating the power of partnership to advance maternal health, strengthen recovery resources, and create lasting impact in our community.

Every rider has a reason to ride. 💙

At Pedal the Cause this past weekend, we asked riders who or what they ride in honor of — and their answers are a powerful reminder of the people and purpose behind every mile.

The Foundation was proud to sponsor the Honor Walkway, featuring custom signs honoring loved ones and the reasons riders showed up.

Together with our partner, Pedal the Cause, we’re proud to support cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and honor the people who inspire us to keep moving forward.
