Celebrating a visionary force in community health care 

As Heather DeMarinis concludes her tenure as board chair of Providence Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital Foundation, we reflect on her remarkable impact. A philanthropist with deep roots in Northern California, Heather’s journey of service began in childhood, blossoming into a lifelong commitment to community betterment.

From her early days with women’s health at Memorial to her pivotal role as Foundation board chair, Heather’s leadership has been transformative. Her passion for improving health care access and empowering communities has left an indelible mark on our Foundation and the lives we touch.

Heather’s diverse interests — from golf to fly-fishing — mirror her multifaceted approach to philanthropy. Her ability to connect, educate and inspire has deepened our board’s engagement and broadened our community impact.

As we bid farewell to Heather’s chairmanship, we celebrate a legacy of compassion, dedication and visionary leadership. Her spirit of service will continue to guide us as we strive to meet the evolving health care needs of Santa Rosa and beyond.
