Deuterman Family Makes Donation to Local Hospital
The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of the Women’s Hospital of Greensboro is even more inviting thanks to a piece of original art donated by the parents of a former patient. “A Special Delivery” is a gift to the hospital from Dan and Dawne Deuterman of the Deuterman Law Group in Greensboro.
“It is a generous gesture on the part of the Deutermans to donate the painting to Women’s Hospital, with the proceeds from the purchase benefiting the March of Dimes,” Cindy Farrand, Vice President/Administrator, Women’s Hospital says.
The Deutermans bought the painting at the Chef’s Auction, a local fundraiser for the March of Dimes. The Deuterman Law Group was a sponsor of the event, which funds programs designed to reduce the incidence of premature births.
“Though he is healthy and happy today, our son Jake weighed just two pounds at birth and spent five months in Neonatal Intensive Care,” Dan Deuterman says. “That means we had an up-close look at the skill and dedication of the team at Women’s Hospital and at the resources offered by the March of Dimes. We’re delighted to be able to honor both organizations and the families they serve.”
“A Special Delivery” was created by Greensboro artist David Gaadt and portrays the arm and hand of a surgeon cradling a small infant. Gaadt painted the image from a photo by Paul Kuroda. The painting now hangs in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Women’s Hospital.
