A Faith-Based Approach to Care
As the only faith-based healthcare organization in the region, Saint Mary's mission is unique. It offers us exclusive opportunities to reach out to our communities and help those in need.
Reaching Out to Our Community
As part of our mission, Saint Mary's Foundation is committed to raise funds and administer gifts and donations to those that need care but cannot afford it. The Foundation's work has made it possible to expand Saint Mary's capabilities, including the addition of new technology, programs and services.
The Foundation supports the Nell J. Redfield Health Centers, in Sun Valley and at Neil Road; and the Take Care-A-Van program, with three mobile outreach dental and medical vans. Through the generosity of our donors, the Foundation underwrites unique and innovative technology to enhance and increase the quality of life and health for our community.
