Serving Others Through Positive Change

HEARTS TO HANDS The Community Health Foundation Hearts to Hands program exists to enable caring individuals within our family of organizations to provide meaningful financial assistance from their Hearts into the Hands of fellow employees who are in crisis. Community Health Foundation has already helped many employees during difficult times by providing financial support, emotional support, ministry and counseling. Gifts to the Hearts to Hands fund by our employees allow this program to grow so that the Foundation can reach more people in need.
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT The Annual Fund of Community Health Foundation also helps with projects and special needs for individuals and groups outside our organization. Some projects are done exclusively by the Foundation. At other times, the Foundation partners with groups like Habitat for Humanity, the Alzheimer’s Association, the Advocacy Resource Center or other local community organizations to help them accomplish their missions.
Eligibility for scholarships includes the following criteria: enrollment in a school approved by the U.S. Department of Education; maintenance of a cumulative C average; and, an employee of an organization that is part of the Community Health Systems family. Scholarship funds are paid directly to the school and may be used for tuition, matriculation, activity and lab fees, books and uniforms. Scholarships are used to pay the difference between any other grants or scholarships and the applicant’s tuition and fees.
