Make a Gift
Every gift, no matter the size, makes a meaningful impact. 100% of your donation stays local, supporting new technologies, patient services, research and more. Give where it’s needed most, or to the area you’re most passionate about.
Plan a Fundraiser
When you do good, it inspires others to do the same. Start your own fundraising campaign to support the causes that matter most to you. Inspire your community to join in and make a lasting impact close to home.
Attend or Donate to Events
Support the Sanford Health Foundation by attending an upcoming event or directing your donation to its cause. Your participation helps raise vital funds and awareness.
Corporate Giving
Healthy communities benefit everyone. As a business leader, your investment in health care helps create a brighter future not just for patients and their families, but for your entire community — today and for generations to come.
