How do donations help?

Your gifts are an investment in the health of your loved ones and neighbors. Your generosity directly supports a variety of programs and projects, such as patient care, equipment, medical research, and medical education.

100% of every dollar you give directly benefits the program or project you choose to support. No portion of your donation is taken for administrative costs.   Every dollar you donate has the same impact as $10 in revenue.
