MCLAUGHLIN SOCIETY: $25,000 - $49,999

The McLaughlin Society is named after Mr. & Mrs. C.J. McLaughlin, the parents of Dr. Harriet Jarret. In 1941, Dr. Jarret and her physician husband, Lawrence, purchased a home on the corner of Townsend and St. Joseph Street from automotive tycoon and noted industrialist R E Olds. They turned their home into a medical facility that became known as the place people would come to have babies and to be treated for ailments and injuries. In 1942, the hospital was dedicated as McLaughlin Osteopathic Hospital, later to become Lansing General Hospital, and now McLaren Orthopedic Hospital. 

MCREE SOCIETY: $50,000 - $99,999

BELEN SOCIETY: $100,000 - $249,999

The Belen Society is named after Miss Lucile Belen, a well-respected Lansing businesswoman, educator, fundraiser, philanthropist, and entrepreneur. Miss Belen was a longtime hospital supporter and the first recipient of the Community Healthcare Leadership Award. In 1981, the hospital initiated an annual employee award for managers or supervisors and named it the Belen Award for Excellence in Management. As a further tribute, an outpatient pavilion at McLaren Greater Lansing was named the Belen Pavilion for her 23 years of leadership on the hospital's Board of Trustees.

BRESLIN SOCIETY: $250,000 - $499,999

The Breslin Society is named after Jack Breslin, a much loved and respected member of the Lansing community. Jack was a star athlete for Michigan State University and served as interim president of MSU.

In recognition of his dedicated service, Mr. Breslin was awarded the Community Healthcare Leadership Award.
