Building Hope + Health + Community

No matter the size of your gift you can make a BIG impact.

Successful community hospitals grow and prosper through community partnerships and philanthropic support. We are asking for the community's help to address social determinants of health.

Your gift to the Christian Hospital Foundation will be a source of strength for our patients, health care workers and community. Your generosity will help us through four funds. Each of these funds provides unique support to address health-harming circumstances that our community members, friends, and patients often face. At Christian Hospital we believe that everyone deserves access to healthcare regardless of personal circumstances. Choose an important area of support by selecting a fund to donate to now.


How You Can Help

Building Healthy Communities Fund

There is an urgent need in St. Louis to redefine health and well-being towards a more human-empowered approach. The Building Healthy Communities fund addresses health conditions where people live, learn, work, and play. Through partnerships with local school districts, community-based organizations, and philanthropy, the Foundation focuses on a wide range of health risks to prevent disease, disability, and death. Funding examples include two school- based health centers in North St. Louis County, annual community flu shots, and the Show Me Healthy Women’s program dedicated to breast and cervical cancer prevention.

CHAP Team

Medical-Legal Partnership Fund

Social determinants of health, such as socioeconomic status, educational access, housing conditions and food options, can derail health. Christian Hospital’s innovative Community Health Access Program (CHAP) works diligently to improve these issues in our service area.

With the busiest ED in the state of Missouri, the CHAP team supports Christian Hospital patients to take better control of their health and overall wellness by connecting them to community resources and regular, preventative care.

In order to expand its impact we are raising funds to establish a Medical-Legal Partnership (MLP) under CHAP. As a Neighborhood Assistance Program awardee, donations to establish a MLP, between $5,000 and $25,000, could qualify to receive tax credits. Tax credits are based on eligibility and availability. For more information about these programs and potential tax benefits, please consult your tax advisor and review the NAP Tax Credit Flyer.

If you would like to take advantage of these tax credits, please contact Laura Kilcullin at [email protected]


Medication and Antibiotic IV for Indigent Patients Fund

Nearly three-out-of-five Americans take medications daily. Unfortunately, social and economic factors are drivers of medication non-adherence in our service area. Annually, the Christian Hospital Foundation (Foundation) raises monies for our uninsured and underinsured population, providing more than $110,000 per year to assist patients and community members with access to necessary medications, devices, or services. Through philanthropy, this gift of health empowers members of our community to take control of their health.

In cooperation with the Medication and Antibiotic IV Fund for Indigent Patients, the Mobile Pharmacy allows us to teach patients how to take their medications and provide life-saving medications before they leave the hospital. This service in conjunction allows vulnerable patients to leave the hospital with necessary medications, empowered to tackle their health management. These services have seen patients take better control of their health which has decreased emergency visits and admissions.
