Sacramento, Calif.-based Sutter Health has received a $30 million gift to establish a new cancer center in Santa Cruz, Calif.
The Jean and E. Floyd Kvamme Advanced Cancer Center, expected to open in 2030, is part of a larger $50 million effort to “revolutionize cancer care and research” for Sutter Health’s community, according to an Aug. 14 news release from the health system.
Sutter Health is planning to open additional cancer centers across Northern California, in Santa Rosa, Modesto, Yuba City, and the Silicon Valley and East Bay regions, the release said.
The $30 million gift was from the Jean and E. Floyd Kvamme Foundation in honor of Jean Kvamme, who died in 2020 after battling cancer.
