About the Foundation

University Health Care Foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to the development and acquisition of financial resources to ensure University Hospital's excellence in the delivery of healthcare services to our community and region.

The mission of University Health Care Foundation is accomplished through your gifts of time, talent and financial resources. Countless opportunities lie ahead to add to the investment begun in 1978 by those community leaders who worked selflessly to establish University Health Care Foundation.
