The fallout from the elevated salaries given out to Valley Children’s CEO Todd Suntrapak and the hospital’s executives continues.
Saturday, the owner of a major car dealership in Clovis said on social media that he will not raise money for Valley Children’s in the future.
Driving the news: Brett Hedrick, the owner of Hedrick’s Chevrolet in Clovis, posted on Facebook on Saturday that he would be halting support for Valley Children’s.
- As The Sun first reported last week, Suntrapak was given a $5.5 million compensation package in 2020 and a $5.1 million package in 2021, according to federal tax returns.
- The hospital also gave Suntrapak a $5 million forgivable loan in 2021 as part of a retention bonus, which he used to purchase a $6.5 million house in Carmel-by-the-Sea in 2022.
What they’re saying: “After raising a ton of money for this organization I will not in the future,” Hedrick wrote on Facebook.
