Buz Standefer Lung Center at CHI Memorial received a donation of more than $23,000 from the Women of Distinction of Greater Chattanooga. 

More than $70,000 was raised at the organization’s 2018 Awards Luncheon, which was split between three local organizations. All the proceeds stay local. 

The money will be used to advance patient care at Buz Standefer Lung Center, "this region’s best and only comprehensive lung center offering the most advanced detection capabilities, interventional procedures and surgical treatments for lung-related diseases," said officials.
