H-E-B recently donated $500,000 to Christus Spohn Hospital. The money will be split between the Kleberg and Alice campuses for facility upgrades, according to the report.
Beth Dattomo, public information officer for H-E-B, said the company is committed to supporting essential health services in South Texas. She said H-E-B believes access to quality health care matters for the well-being of local communities.
