I Am Part of the Promise.
“ GBMC has a longstanding commitment to excellence, delivering the best care to everyone. This building is an effort to push the envelope, continue to be a leader in care delivery and set a standard for others to follow. ”Donor Story
Melvin Blanchard
Melvin S. Blanchard, MD, FACP, Chair of Medicine at GBMC HealthCare, and his wife, Erica N. Johnson, MD, an Infectious Disease Specialist, Program Director of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center and Assistant Professor of Medicine, met because of their shared roles as educators. When the opportunity to support GBMC’s capital campaign, The Promise Project, presented itself, they saw it as an extension of the relationship-based, patient-centered care delivery method they consistently stress with their residents.

The Promise I Make ...
“ To make sure I adhere to GBMC’s vision, I write down at least one accomplishment or moment of joy that I experienced during the workday. That helps me remember that even though the accomplishment or moment may have been small, it was impactful for our patients. ”Donor Story

The Most Advanced Facility of its Kind.
As we plan for the optimization of our hospital, we are incorporating lessons learned as a result of COVID-19. Now, we will also have the most advanced facility for large-scale emergencies. We will come out of this stronger and more prepared than before as we build on GBMC’s strengths, together.

We Can't Do It Alone.
By donating any amount, you become a part of the promise for generations to come.
GBMC is Your Hospital.
Today, GBMC remains the only community-owned hospital in Baltimore. Our intentional decision to remain independent is paramount to our mission and our promise to deliver the best healthcare at a better cost that meets the needs of our entire community, at all levels of income. Now is our time to build even stronger.
Thank You.
The Promise Project would not be possible without the following individuals, organizations and foundations. We thank them for their generosity and vision.
