While the equipment will be paid for through donations, they will still have the lease the building from the Developer. It is a very good deal for CFHA because the donated equipment represents $125-$150K in cash flow per month.
Now ask yourself, why did the Developer find it important to have a center at the Villages?
Bragging rights.
Looks good on resume.
"Major cancer center located in the Villages".

As to the locations of the centers many of us in the southern part of the Villages, Hemingway, Hadley, Buttonwood etc., are closer to the Leesburg campus.
