Mission
The mission of St. Anthony Summit Health Foundation is to raise and allocate philanthropic funds, primarily for the hospital's programs and services that benefit the underserved, the elderly, and the community. Our focus is on areas and issues that enhance the hospital's mission but do not fall within the normal parameters of the hospital or its budget.
The key to the St. Anthony Summit Health Foundation's work is its successful Healthy Communities initiative. This multi-faceted effort provides funding for a wide range of health-related programs and services.
Recognition of Excellence
For the ninth consecutive year, CommonSpirit Health has again been ranked among the top high-performing health care fundraisers in North America by the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy (AHP).
