Over the past seven
years, the Harold Pump Foundation has donated over 1.9 Million Dollars
to the Northridge Hospital Cancer Programs, $600,000 in 2006
alone! The money has helped the hospital purchase equipment
used in diagnostics, treatment, and screening for cancer. |

The 2005 purchase of the SecurView
DX Workstation, the Selenia Full-Field Digital Mammography machine,
and the Mammatome Breast Biopsy System have continued to keep Northridge
on the cutting edge of cancer diagnostics. “Saving lives with cancer
patients (depends on) early detection … Our medical staff
puts a strong emphasis on having the medical technology to detect
cancer at an early stage and to treat our cancer patients so they
have a high percentage of recovery.” (Brian Hammel,
President, Northridge Hospital)
In April 2006 with foundation support, the hospital started
the ‘Screening
Program for the Underprivileged.’ The program was able
to screen over 423 patients that might otherwise go unscreened and
over 20 patients were diagnosed in the early stages of cancer – when
treatment is still possible. This was quite a success and the
goal will be to triple the program in 2007. |

The Harold Pump
Foundation has made a two million dollar pledge to
Northridge Hospital, and the hospital plans on using these funds to
turn the

centers in Southern
California for cancer care and treatment.
