Lauritzen, executive vice president of First National Bank. &#8220;We are pleased to support this joint initiative to provide the best possible primary care in our rural areas while educating future health professionals to serve those communities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The challenge also encouraged Jim D. and Faye D. Rasmussen of Ravenna to give $250,000 to support the new facility.<\/p>\n<p>The first leadership gift for the project was a $1 million donation from CHI Health Good Samaritan in Kearney announced in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Other donors who contributed to the success of the project include Sharron Altmaier of Kearney, Larry and Mary Lynn Callen of Windsor, Colo., Ron and Carol Cope Foundation, Tom and Mary Henning of Kearney, Hildreth Family Scholarship Fund, Kearney Clinic, John and Sharon Martin of Riverdale, Wayne and Virginia McKinney of Kearney, Minden Exchange Bank, J.
