Little Company of Mary Hospital Foundation has retained the services of Gary Hubbell Consulting to assist in preparation for a capital campaign preparation and to conduct a fund raising feasibility study.

Founded in January, 1930, in Evergreen Park, Illinois, Little Company of Mary Hospital is a not-for-profit Catholic community hospital providing high quality surgical, inpatient and outpatient facilities. The Foundation (LCMHF) supports Little Company's dedication to high-quality, compassionate care for all who enter the Hospital's doors by seeking donations from individuals, businesses and foundations to enhance programs and services, to purchase needed technology and to upgrade facilities. Little Company's ministry extends from the Hospital to surrounding communities with educational programs, support groups, senior services, wellness programs, children and adult bereavement programs, and comprehensive programs for patients enduring cancer and its effects.

Little Company of Mary Hospital and Health Care Centers plan to build a comprehensive Women's Center on the hospital campus. Construction is expected in 2007 – 2008.

Gary Hubbell Consulting will conduct a feasibility study and campaign readiness assessment as LCMHF leaders prepare to explore the potential for raising funds for the Women's Center initiative. In addition, Gary Hubbell Consulting will help LCMHF determine the steps necessary to adequately prepare for campaign implementation.

Mary Jo May, Executive Director of LCMHF stated, "We're excited about this next campaign and its impact on those we serve. Hubbell Consulting is a great fit for the strategic analysis and the experience we were looking for to make this campaign a success."

As a strategic planning and resource development consultant with almost thirty years experience helping nonprofit organizations fulfill their missions, Hubbell is well positioned to assist LCMHF as it embarks on this process. With Hubbell Consulting's guidance LCMHF will be able to prepare for the campaign fully cognizant of the internal and external issues that will shape the campaign, thereby improving efficiency and response time.

In addition to Hubbell's work serving as counsel and coach to organizations across the country, he is an active author and speaker.
