Overview of Kona Community Hospital

The Kona Hospital Foundation, a non-profit corporation, was created in 1984 by Allen Wilcox, Dr. Garold Enloe, Fred Fujimoto and Richard Ishida, to accept gifts and solicit donations for new medical technology, expanded services and enhanced facilities for Kona Community Hospital. The people of West Hawaii, both visitors and residents, deserve local access to a progressive hospital providing excellent healthcare.

The Foundation’s major endeavors to improve the hospital include The Radiation Oncology Center (ROC), Imaging Center, Nuclear Medicine Suite and Outpatient Chemotherapy Building, Adopt A Room, Buy A Bed and New Cardiology Clinic Equipment. Other completed projects are the Emergency Helicopter Landing Area, repair and painting of the facility, enhanced directional signage for visitors, medical equipment and education for hospital professionals. Our most recent efforts raised funds for new Operating Room Equipment and Technology.
