Support the 1956 Fund – Advancing Healthcare in Our Community

NCH continues to grow along with our community as we transform into an Advanced Community Healthcare System^TM – expanding our research and clinical trial capabilities and collaborating with best-in-class partners who are equally committed to excellence, offering you top-tier physicians and treatment right here in Southwest Florida.

As Collier County’s only nonprofit hospital, the core of NCH’s mission is that no one requiring life-saving care will be turned away, no matter their background, income or health concerns. Many patients often tell us they appreciate receiving care at their local health system, not only because of the close-to-home convenience, but also that our compassionate team goes above and beyond to personalize care, so you and your loved ones participate in important health-related decisions. 

Every single gift expands our ability to deliver emergency care when you need it most, as exemplified below:

• $2,500: Average nursing scholarship awarded
• $1,000: 1 digital blood pressure machine
• $500: 6 boxes of gloves, gowns and masks
• $100: Medical student’s white coat
• $25: 10 patient or staff meals

Donor support is critical for us to answer the call every time. Last year, 48 percent of all donations made to NCH were between $1 and $2,500 – a testament to our entire community coming together to support our local hospital.

When you give to the 1956 Fund, you are saving lives, improving the quality of life, and providing access to care that contributes to making our community the No. 1 place to live in the United States.
