(WICHITA, Kan.)—
Doctors and nurses at Grace Med received an unusual donation Thursday. Heartland Coin Gallery donated a gold coin to the clinic.The coin is valued at $1,700. Grace Med says the coin can help pay for the care of 150 people.
Director Dave Sanford says Heartland Coin heard about coins being donated to other charities and decided to help Grace Med. "It always amazes me at the grace and goodness that people provide, particularly at this time of year," Sanford said.
Grace Med plans to auction the coin off during a fundraiser next year in an effort to generate even more money to help patients.
