Connecting our community with resources during health care challenges through philanthropic innovations.

The N.E.W. Community Health Foundation has stood by our families, friends, and neighbors—offering hope, healing, and support when it’s needed most. Thanks to your compassion and generosity, for over 50 years we’ve provided more than $3.5 million in direct support for over 100,000 of our neighbors facing some of life’s toughest challenges.

Here’s why your gift matters:

  • We help neighbors fighting cancer, navigating hospice, and facing mental health struggles.

  • We also support residents at The Legacy Living & Rehab Center, help patients and their families traveling for medical care with lodging, and award local scholarships to future healthcare heroes.

  • We’ve been serving this community for 50 YEARS with the help of 4 passionate staff, 13 dedicated board members, 30+ talented committee members, and 100s of spirited volunteers!

OUR WORK DOES NOT STOP. Your support fuels everything we do.

“I give back my time to the NEW Community Health Board for many reasons, my grandmother was a recipient of Lifeline through Festival of Trees, my mother in-law used the Heptner Cancer Center and my children received free flu shots through the VIP Project when they were in school. I have personal experiences with several things this Foundation helps with and felt it important to give my time to pay it forward.”

— Kristin McKenney, NEW Community Health Foundation Past President
