About the Foundation

Piedmont Augusta Foundation was established in 1978 with a simple goal directed by our mission statement: to improve the health of those we serve. Today and in the future, the Foundation will serve Piedmont Augusta and its patients by providing the additional financial resources for uncovered medication, medical equipment, capital improvements, education, therapy, physician visits and support groups.

Foundation Impact

As we look back on 2021, it was a year of fits and starts, opening back up and shutting back down. However, even with that uncertainty, there was a lot of good accomplished by University Health Care Foundation. See how University Health Care Foundation (now Piedmont Augusta Foundation) helped our community in 2021.
