The Beebe Medical Center in Lewes says it has received the largest donation in its 95-year history.
The hospital announced last week that it received a $3 million donation from the Ma-Ran Foundation, a group based in Atlanta and established by Margaret and R. Randall Rollins. It will allow Beebe to fast-track the construction of a new nursing school.
The school will be named after Margaret Rollins, a longtime supporter of the hospital who grew up in Lewes and worked in the hospital's administrative offices.
The $3 million donation is double the size of the second-largest gift of $1.5 million by the Tunnell family for Beebe's cancer center.
The Beebe School of Nursing is the only hospital-based nursing program in Delaware.
