Why We Focus On Healthcare & Community Organizations

We See the Gaps Before Anyone Else Does

No other nonprofit in Central Alabama has the access we do. We identify healthcare gaps from the inside and respond faster than any outside organization could.

Support For Those Who Support You

Nurses and healthcare workers carry an enormous weight. When they face unexpected hardship, we provide confidential financial assistance so they can stay focused on the patients who need them.

Every Dollar Reaches the Work

Rest assured every dollar you give goes directly to programs, patients, and people in need.

  • The Community Support Fund has provided a crucial lifeline for ReMedy by allowing us to embark on a major expansion. This expansion not only addresses an unmet need but also positions us to double our impact. With the support of the Baptist Health Foundation, we can prevent nearly $1 Million worth of used medical equipment from ending up in landfills and extend a helping hand to those in need.

    Christopher Crain, Executive Director

  • Receiving the Foundation’s New Generation of Nurses scholarship means so much just because it takes more weight off my shoulders of worrying about the cost of school and allows me to focus on my future.
