The UCH Foundation: Working Together, Making a Difference in the Health of our Community
The University Community Hospital Foundation (UCH Foundation) was established to address the varied needs of the Hospital and the community through fund raising and friend-raising programs. The Board of Trustees is comprised of a committed group of community and business leaders, physicians and staff who volunteer their time to guide the plans and projects it will undertake. Our cause is quality health care. Health care cannot be taken for granted; nor can we rely on our government, managed care companies or private insurers to fund the health care needs of our community. It is philanthropy that is going to make the difference. Philanthropic funds are used in support of our Centers of Excellence and to support important community-based programs, provide for charity care and build an endowment to secure a healthy future for University Community Hospital.

Your Gift Makes a Difference...
Funds raised through the UCH Foundation provide for programs and services that would not be possible without the support of a caring community. We want to continue providing you with the highest quality health care.

Every Gift is Special...
We recognize our donors are special partners in the healing mission of University Community Hospital. As an expression of gratitude, donors are recognized in the UCH Foundation's Annual Report. A beautiful donor wall permanently recognizes cumulative gifts of more than $5,000 to the UCH Foundation. Housed in the lobby of the hospital, the donor wall stands as a symbol of caring and commitment.

More and more people are finding both joy and peace by remembering someone they love through a commemorative gift. Your gift can be made in memory of a loved one, or in honor of a meaningful event, such as a birthday, anniversary, birth, graduation or a holiday such as Mother's or Father's Day, Christmas or Easter. When you make this thoughtful, lasting tribute, your loved one or loved one's family member will receive a special card in the mail (within 48 hours) that acknowledges a donation has been made in their honor or memory.
