The Wisconsin Hospitals State PAC & Conduit closed out the 2023 fundraising campaign raising $364,495 from 275 individual contributors. That is 104% of its 2023 goal of raising $350,000. The overall average individual contribution in 2023 was $1,325, and of the 275 contributors, 58 were first-time contributors with an average contribution of $620.
"Thanks to the steadfast commitment of 275 of our state's health care leaders, the Wisconsin Hospitals State PAC & Conduit was able to exceed its fundraising goal and support candidates all across the state who value health care," said John Russell, 2023 chair of the Wisconsin Hospital Association’s (WHA’s) Advocacy Committee. "I am most proud and encouraged to see so many new contributors this year as we look to continue to grow this important program," Russell added.
Fundraising efforts for 2024 will officially kick off just before WHA's Advocacy Day on March 20. Individuals can submit 2024 contributions before March 20 at www.whconduit.com.
All contributors to the Wisconsin Hospitals State PAC & Conduit 2023 campaign can be found below. For more information and to get involved, contact WHA Vice President of External Affairs Kari Hofer.
