What is the BHNRC Sunshine Fund?

The fund was established to help those employees of Baptist Health Nursing and Rehabilitation Center (BHNRC) experiencing financial difficulty because of some type of disaster.

Who is eligible for this fund?

You must be a current employee of BHNRC and have been employed by BHNRC for at least 6 months. You must also be in good standing with BHNRC.

How are awardees selected?

A committee, appointed by Tony Alotta, Administrator, will review the applications. A two-thirds majority vote of the committee is required to release the funds.. All funds will be released confidentially to the chosen employees.
.
Employees will be directed to other sources of funding or assistance before they can receive Sunshine Funds. Sunshine Funds will be used as a last resort to assist employees. Sunshine Funds may be used to help bridge the gap to outside assistance. Employees may be directed to Baptist’s Job Coach for assistance with outside services.

How do I apply for funding?

Applications are available in the HR office.

How can I support the Sunshine Fund?

Anyone is welcome to contribute to the Sunshine Fund. 

Employees can voluntarily donate their benefit hours to the fund, provided they have at least 37.5 hours remaining after any donation. The hours donated will be converted into dollars by multiplying their hourly rate times the number of hours donated. This amount will be added to the fund. Forms may be found in the Business Office.

Donations may also be made by cash or check. Please make checks payable to Baptist Health Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Please write “BHNRC Sunshine Fund” in the memo field, and mail to
