The Healing Hand Foundation is hosting a Black Tie Gala in honor of Ethel Lund, HHF Founder and Celebration of her 90th birthday. The HHF is hosting the event in an effort to set up scholarship opportunities for Alaska Native students that may be pursuing a career in the medical field. Ethel is known as the “Godmother of Tribal Health Care” for her work in the healthcare. Growing up, she saw many of her friends and family impacted by poor healthcare provided to Alaska Natives in Southeast Alaska. She was determined to form an organization that would provide crucial healthcare. This was the first of its kind, and crucial for the people of Southeast Alaska. In this, SEARHC was born.

Healing Hand Foundation Honors the Legacy of Dr. Walter Soboleff
When the Healing Hand Foundation was established, it was designed to fill gaps in the medical and health-care services available to beneficiaries of Southeast Alaska Regional Health Consortium (SEARHC) and to veterans. At the time, that might mean providing travel assistance so Elders could have a companion travel with them to out-of-town medical appointments, or to fund a replacement pair of eyeglasses for a veteran whose Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) coverage wouldn’t provide another. This spring, Healing Hand offered COVID-19 mini-grants to those impacted by the pandemic.
