Only in exceptional circumstances will requests for immediate funding be reviewed. Salvador Castañares, born in Monterrey, Mexico in 1908, immigrated to the United States alone in 1923 and died in Los Angeles in 2005. His professional life was one of hardworking medical service, as a general surgeon and later a specialist in plastic and reconstructive surgery.
He volunteered for military service in the US Army Air Corps during WWII and was a flight surgeon. He married Doris Thurber in 1941. They settled in Los Angeles and raised three children there: Tony, Dennis and Tina Castañares.
In 1984 Tina and her husband Paul moved to Hood River, where she practiced medicine for over 30 years, chiefly with Mexican immigrants and other underserved groups. After Salvador’s death, Doris Castañares moved to Hood River to live with Tina and Paul. She passed away in 2019.
In 2012, Dennis and his wife Jana retired and moved to Hood River as well, volunteering their time and talent in music, theatre, and education. Tony and his wife Kris have long been regular visitors to the area. Thus, of the Castañares family, only Salvador lacked the opportunity to participate in the life of the mid-Columbia region.
In 2016, Tina established the Salvador Fund to enable him, albeit posthumously, to strengthen the health and vibrancy of an area that had come to mean so much to his wife and children.
