Our Mission To inspire and empower our patients by providing funding for accessible and affordable healthcare now and into the future. Our Vision To establish a $25 million endowment ($2 million annually) to transform patient lives in rural communities by keeping healthcare locally based, where the need is greatest. 3

The Horizon Health Foundation was established in 2016 to ensure rural healthcare access to those in need and provide funding for Horizon Health Care. Horizon Health Foundation, a tax-exempt, non-profit corporation, seeks through responsible activities to encourage and derive sustaining gift support from current and former patients and interested friends, including corporate entities. The Horizon Health Foundation, operating in coordination with Horizon Health Care, is the duly designated fundraising arm for Horizon Health Care. In the broadest sense, the purpose of the Foundation is to create an awareness of the financial needs of Horizon Health Care, which are not provided by patient charges and to systematically implement plans by which dollar needs can be met. 4
