Honoring Our Treasured Donors

On November 1, 2022, we held our inaugural Legacy Society Luncheon. We spent the afternoon with esteemed members of our Tarzana family to honor those who make up our Legacy Society and celebrate our treasured supporters.

We were joined by our chief executive, Nick Lymberopoulos, who shared exciting updates about the future of the medical center. Dr. Jeffrey Work, interventional cardiology and cardiovascular diseases, provided moving insights about the importance of our work toward becoming a cardiac center of excellence and the impact it has on patients and their families.

The Legacy Society was created to honor donors who have chosen to remember Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center in their estate plans or through a planned gift. Because of the generosity of these individuals and families, we can ensure that Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center will continue to serve our patients and their loved ones with world-class, compassionate care for generations to come.

If you would like to learn more about our Legacy Society, contact Debra King, director of planned giving, at 323-896-0284 or Debra.King@providence.org.
