Our Purpose

Our purpose is to build lasting philanthropic partnerships to power innovation and clinical excellence in support of patient care at our community-owned hospital, EvergreenHealth. 

Our Mission

EvergreenHealth Foundation exists to support the greatest needs of our community-owned hospital EvergreenHealth. We fulfill those needs by building meaningful relationships with donors rooted in our shared commitment to keeping exceptional health care in our community. 

EvergreenHealth relies on philanthropy to realize its promise of delivering exceptional patient-centered care while staying independent and mission-driven.

At EvergreenHealth Foundation, we recognize the power of philanthropy to drive innovation, quality and excellence in local health care. Every gift to EvergreenHealth Foundation goes toward providing the best possible care to every EvergreenHealth patient.

The outcomes speak for themselves. For the sixth year in a row, EvergreenHealth has been recognized as a Healthgrades Top 50 Hospital for Clinical Excellence—ranking among the top 1% of hospitals nationwide for our superior patient care.

Fulfilling the EvergreenHealth Promise

EvergreenHealth relies on philanthropy to fulfill a bold vision: A locally owned hospital system that delivers world-class care with a compassionate touch in a welcoming space that is close to home.

Since EvergreenHealth Foundation was established in 1990, our not-for-profit has partnered with the community to provide our hospital with the resources necessary to continue the pursuit of clinical excellence. In the past three decades we’ve witnessed the transformative power of philanthropy as EvergreenHealth has grown from a modest general hospital into one of the top hospital systems in the nation. 

The lifesaving and lifechanging care at EvergreenHealth show the promise of philanthropy, and our work is just beginning.

Recently, EvergreenHealth Foundation has fundraised with a special focus: Maximizing clinical excellence at EvergreenHealth. Our donors have invested in enhancing specialty care, sustaining community programs, making capital improvements and purchasing newer, more modern technology.

These efforts have paid dividends. Today, EvergreenHealth’s reputation for clinical excellence extends well beyond the Puget Sound region, garnering awards and recognition for its superior patient outcomes and the value, safety and quality of care. We are humbled by all that our hospital has achieved, but never complacent. More families are moving to the Eastside, which can create access challenges, and our longtime neighbors are aging which increases demand for specialty care.

EvergreenHealth must grow alongside our community and adapt to these evolving health care needs. Philanthropy will be essential to sustaining local health care needs, but also instrumental in taking EvergreenHealth to the next level.

We envision a future where EvergreenHealth is the hospital of choice for the nation’s most exceptional clinicians, scientists and specialists, because they see our community hospital as the place to practice to their fullest potential. Every day, we are committed to serving our Eastside community, with our providers cradling our Eastside friends and neighbors through triumphant beginnings, heartfelt goodbyes, and every moment and milestone in between.
