The Riley Industrial
Men’s Health Fund
The Riley Industrial Men’s Health Fund was established in 2004 by Riley Industrial Services, Inc. to assist men of San Juan County in receiving needed medical care and prescriptions. After assessing community needs, Riley Industrial chose men’s health as the focus of their fund.
Men’s Health Facts:
Men live 5 years shorter than women
Only about 62 percent of men have a primary care physician
Women are 100 percent more likely than men to visit the doctor for annual exams and preventive services
Each year over 23,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer
Over the course of a lifetime half of all men will get cancer at least once
Every year 392,000 men die from cardiovascular disease
Depression in men is undiagnosed contributing to the fact that men are four times as likely to commit suicide
Annual fundraising events and private donations help to make resources available to the underinsured men of our area. Make sure to check out some of our annual events such as Riley Industrial Men’s Health Fund Charity Golf Classic and the RZR Raffle. Potentially eligible men are reviewed by a panel using financial need and medical necessity as its funding guidelines.
The Riley Industrial Men’s Health Fund is administered through the San Juan Medical Foundation – a community-based, independent, non-profit organization committed to enhancing health care in the Four Corners region in cooperation with San Juan Regional Medical Center. Donations to the San Juan Medical Foundation are tax deductible to the extent of the law.
