Driscoll Health receives $1 million endowment to retain healthcare workers

EDINBURG, Texas (ValleyCentral) — Driscoll announced it received the Robert & Laurie Lozano Family 'Life Currency' Endowment to establish a workforce retention program.

The Lozano family provided $500,000. Money was also raised through Children's Miracle Network contributions from F&P brand restaurants in the Rio Grande Valley.

F&P Brands has committed to donating an additional $125,000 to jumpstart the fund's purpose.

"Start getting money in people's hands that are making our children better and making them happy at the hospitals every day," said F&P Brands CEO Robert Lozano.

It is also in conjunction with the Driscoll Way program, which is aimed at attracting and retaining top healthcare talent in the region.

A portion of the funds will be allocated to provide monetary incentives to dedicated staff, while the remainder will be used to support employee development and growth through learning and personal development opportunities.
