Mercy Medical Foundation was formed in 1983 as a separate 501c3. In April 2016, the Mercy Medical Foundation became "CHI St. Alexius Health Williston Foundation". Our foundation remains an independent, local entity which raises funds for direct needs at our Williston location.

The Foundation Team works under the management of a Board of Directors comprised of community leaders and area residents, along with Hospital leadership, who meet to set a program of work to accomplish the goal of fundraising for hospital needs, building the endowment fund, and carrying out projects essential to growth and development.
