Fundraising & Event Inquiries

To our donors and San Luis Obispo community members, 

Over the next week, French Hospital Medical Center Foundation will not be able to accept online gifts. We are fixing the issues with our system to allow online gifts.  

For event registrations, reserve your tickets today by contacting Samantha at 805.542.6496 or via email.


We welcome this opportunity to speak with you directly via phone or in person. Learning about your story and support is important. To make a gift, please contact any member of our team.
