Mission Statement

The Southeast Alabama Medical Center Foundation exists to advance healthcare and wellness needs in the communities served by Southeast Alabama Medical Center and its affiliates through philanthropy. We want to ensure the availability of every dimension of healthcare through the purchase of state-of-the-art equipment, technology, facility expansion and program needs.

About This Cause

The Southeast Alabama Medical Center Foundation, Inc. was created as a public charity in May 2006 to help advance the mission of Southeast Alabama Medical Center, the regions’ premier community-owned, non-for-profit 420-bed healthcare referral center. As a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit organization there are no owners or shareholders and the trustees serve without financial compensation. The Foundation’s annual operating costs are underwritten by the Medical Center so that 100 percent of all donated gifts benefit the designated hospital program or health initiative. When donations are made during a special event, the net revenue earned by the enterprise is reinvested to fund enhancements to the physical plant, purchase state of the art equipment and fun the overall health care mission which includes care for those who are unable to pay for their medical care and services. Currently governed by a 27-member voluntary Board of Trustees, the Foundation exists to cultivate relationships and establish philanthropic partnerships among individuals, groups and businesses interested in delivering quality medical care to the communities of Southeast Alabama, Northwest Florida and Southwest Georgia. The doors to the Foundation officially opened in March 2007 as part of the hospital's 50th anniversary celebration. Through a spirit of generosity, Foundation partners – physicians, employees, volunteers, former patients and friends of Southeast Alabama Medical Center and its affiliates – can take an active humanitarian role in helping close the need gaps – and the dream gaps – for a healthier way of life in the communities we serve. Your tax deductible gift can include gifts of cash, stock, property and life insurance. Gifts can be designated for specific or general purpose use. Areas where gifts can be designated include, but are not limited to: The Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine, Behavior Medicine, Cancer Services, Marian Loftin Children’s Programs, Critical Care, Diabetes Care, Emergency Services, Heart & Vascular Services, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Neuro Critical Care, Patient Care/Nursing Services, and Women’s Health Services In addition to the above funds, the Foundation also has established the Health & Wellness Endowment to secure the long-term viability of Southeast Alabama Medical Center and to meet the future healthcare and wellness needs of the regional community served by the hospital and its affiliates.
