For over two decades, Bozeman Health Foundation has been generating private financial support for vital services and facilities right here at home, contributing to Bozeman Health's mission to improve community health and quality of life. The foundation, formed in 1998 as a nonprofit corporation governed by an independent board of directors, is charged with administering all philanthropic gifts for Bozeman Health.

Medicine has changed greatly since our hospital began operations in 1911, and Bozeman Health has been able to stay at the forefront and expand its healthcare services because, for more than a century, the community has been generous with their charitable support. At the same time, the population has seen continuous growth, resulting in ever-increasing demands for top quality healthcare services that cannot be met exclusively with our health system's resources. To meet growing needs, the Bozeman Health Foundation has raised more than $30 million and responsibly invested permanent endowment funds to help underwrite current and future medical opportunities. Through philanthropic partnerships, the foundation strives to ensure that services will continue to advance healthcare for all of those living in and visiting this region.

The foundation raises private funds for two purposes. First, contributions are sought for capital projects, specialized equipment and expanded services that provide patients advanced treatments in their home community. Second, we continue to build our program and endowment funds so that our resources will ensure a perpetual impact on causes that matter to us and our revered donors.
