WE ARE LEGACY

We are caretakers, life changers, and even life savers. We are warriors of wellness, curators of our communities, and proponents of positive impacts. We are shaping a better world for today and all the days that follow. We are all of these things. And, importantly, so are every one of our donors, volunteers and philanthropic supporters.

Legacy Health is the largest local, nonprofit health care system serving Oregon and Southwest Washington. Our foundations support six acute care hospitals, as well as clinical, educational and research programs. Philanthropy & Community Engagement coordinates all fundraising initiatives for Legacy Health, providing the resources to carry out our mission of good health for our people, our patients, our communities and our world.
