North Kansas City Hospital has received a $3 million legacy gift from the estate of Nancy Ruth Botham of Liberty, MO.

This transformational gift is the largest in the organization’s 64-year history.

Botham had a great appreciation for the care she received at NKCH and Meritas Health throughout her lifetime, including lifesaving neurosurgery. She made the gift in honor of the physicians, nurses and staff who cared for her through the years. It was her wish to “pay it forward” for future patients.

In May, NKCH announced the establishment of its philanthropy program to help transform patient care. With this generous gift, NKCH will further advance its mission and support vital health system needs, including future growth to better serve patients and the community.

Your support helps us deliver our mission of providing hope and healing to every life we touch. Learn about ways to give at nkch.org/Giving.
