LAKE OSWEGO, Ore., Sept. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- For the eighth
consecutive year West Coast Bank will partner with other leading
businesses and individuals to sponsor the Heart of Doernbecher

Bank proudly sponsors activities that help the communities we serve
and it is a joy to support a dedicated pediatric hospital and
academic health center of Doernbecher's distinction." Sue Nicol,
Executive Director of Doernbecher Children's Hospital Foundation,
said, "West Coast Bank and the other business leaders who will
partner to sponsor the 2008 Heart of Doernbecher Auction will
provide immeasurable benefit to tens of thousands of children in
Oregon and Southwest Washington. We are most grateful to West Coast
Bank and our other civic leaders who, so graciously, are sponsoring
this event." With nationally recognized programs in pediatric heart
surgery, neurosurgery, cancer, diabetes and metabolic diseases,

care to more than 56,500 children each year from Oregon, Southwest
