Northern Colorado Foundation
We improve lives
Our not-for-profit hospitals focus on investing resources to improve the lives of our families, friends and neighbors in northern Colorado.Â
Through the generosity of individual, corporate, and foundation donors, as well as through public grant funding, UCHealth Northern Colorado Foundation provides funding to support innovative research and education, patient financial assistance, community health programs, and enhancements to patient care. We also provide value-added services that are not covered by insurance.
Private donations from community members enable us to bridge gaps in services and accelerate advances in health care. Many critically important services offered to UCHealth patients and families in northern Colorado would not exist without private donations made through the foundation. Donations also help thankful patients and families express gratitude—a powerful part of the healing journey for many people.
100% of every donated dollar goes to the foundation’s philanthropic funds, with no overhead costs or administrative fees.Â
