The Fort Hamilton Hospital is excited to be celebrating its 75th anniversary on May 1, 2004. Fort Hamilton has a rich heritage as a hospital built by the community, for the community. On January 1, 1925, a group of 21 women and men from Protestant and Jewish congregations held the first meeting of the Butler County Welfare Club, which later became the Fort Hamilton Hospital Association. By October, more than 4,000 community members had been recruited to the hospital movement. In just 15 days during March of 1926, an aggressive capital campaign generated more than 8,500 pledges totaling nearly $500,000. When construction was complete three years later, 14,000 people came to a hospital open house to see what they had helped to build.

The 108-bed hospital that opened its doors on May 1, 1929, was a far cry from the state-of-the-art facility The Fort Hamilton Hospital has become today. The hospital is now licensed for 307 beds and offers cutting edge technology. In the last three years, Fort Hamilton has invested $32.2 million in the latest equipment and expansions needed to keep up with its rapidly increasing patient volume.
