Dreams Restored – Employee Relief Fund
The unprecedented challenge of the Covid-19 pandemic had an immediate impact on our teams, families and our communities. We have been committed to doing what we can to take care of our associates during these very difficult times. Through the Towne Park Foundation’s Employee Relief Fund, we are proud to have contributed $300,000 to support former and current associates experiencing hardship due to the crisis and help them bridge the gap.
At Towne Park we support and care for each other. We want to offer a special acknowledgment and thank you to our many employees who made personal contributions to the fund to support their colleagues in need.
Your much needed help and generosity during this extremely difficult time is an amazing gesture. I felt such a great relief when I opened the mail and saw the check. -- Towne Park Associate, Austin Texas

St. Joseph’s Hospital, Denver, CO
Vincent has been a valet Guest Service Captain at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Denver since 2021. He is highly respected among his Towne Health peers and his leadership has been invaluable to the team, especially as a champion for site safety. Additionally, he regularly steps in to help with translation for Spanish-speaking families.
A full-time sophomore at Metropolitan State University of Denver, Vincent is pursuing an Aerospace Aeronautical degree and is also in flight school. Additionally, he is an officer in the Air Force JROTC and the Army ROTC. Vincent has served as a member of the Glenwood Springs Firefighter Explorer Program and a local precollegiate program, designed to help first-generation students reach their goals of higher education.
Vincent’s goal is to become a professional pilot. His dream, however, is even bigger; he wants to become the role model in the aviation world that he didn’t have when he was younger. He hopes to bring more Latinos into the aviation field and to share his love for flying with them.
As someone who got this job to pay for college, I appreciate the fact that I was chosen to receive the scholarship. This award alleviates some of the financial pressure placed on me and I cannot be more grateful. Thank you!
Reading Hospital, Wyomissing, PA
Tyler is a junior at the Pennsylvania State University-Berks Campus majoring in IT & Computing, and the Towne Park Dream Scholars program will help set him on the path to achieving his dream of starting his own company potentially focused on helping the older generation navigate technology. Tyler has worked with Towne Health as a screener for Reading Hospital in Pennsylvania since 2020 and loves getting the chance to help make each patient’s arrival easier.
At a young age, he faced difficulties due to his mother’s illness and the family’s financial hardships. By virtue of these real-life experiences, Tyler exhibits a fortitude, strength and resilience that many people of the same age don’t yet have. He has forged his own path and set high standards for himself. This includes serving community members in need through his previous involvement with the Helping Harvest Food Bank, where Tyler provided assistance with cleaning, packaging and transportation. Tyler pushes himself academically, is committed to excellence and achieving his goals.
