Prisma Health-Upstate Foundation has launched a new initiative aimed at raising funds and awareness for important health services in the community. This campaign, called the OneDay campaign, kicked off at an event on November 19 at Hugenot Mill in downtown Greenville.
The OneDay campaign encourages community members to take action and support health services that can make a significant impact on people’s lives. One of the key goals is to gather funds for a new $138 million inpatient behavioral health hospital in Pickens County, which is designed to meet the growing demand for mental health services in the Upstate.
The planned hospital will span 132,430 square feet and will be located on 46 acres at the intersection of U.S. Highway 123 and S.C. Highway 153. Construction is set to begin in the spring of 2025, with completion anticipated in 2027.
In addition to private contributions, the South Carolina General Assembly has pledged $100 million to support the Department of Health and Human Services for this vital project.
The OneDay campaign will feature a series of events throughout the year to raise additional funds for the new hospital. The first fundraising event is a benefit wine dinner that took place on November 20 at The Anchorage. Donations are also welcome and can be made online.
