Current Philanthropic Opportunities

The Emergency Response Fund was established to support Livingston HealthCare’s immediate response to devastating events like the fast-moving global spread of COVID-19, the novel coronavirus.

Livingston HealthCare’s Incident Command System (ICS) team is continuing to monitor the disease spread and the changing guidelines while directing the hospital’s ongoing response to this evolving global health crisis.

Your gift will be used to address the needs of patients and caregivers impacted by COVID-19, and to support emerging areas of greatest need, such as:

- Expanding diagnostic and testing capacity.

- Securing our ability to cover extended staff time and benefits for health care providers working directly on the crisis.

- Addressing expenses of exposed patients who are not covered by insurance.

- Ensuring comprehensive treatment for patients and equipment for health care workers.

Each year, LHC is able to replace a certain amount of aging equipment with the latest, most advanced models. Gifts toward Capital Equipment allow LHC to acquire additional life-saving equipment even sooner. The Foundation is currently seeking funds for:

LHC partners with the Park County Health Department and Community Health Partners for a Maternal and Infant Home Visiting Program. Within three days of hospital discharge after delivery, mom and newborn are visited at home by a Park County Public Nurse where they receive education on breast-feeding, immunizations, identification of postpartum depression, home safety, and overall well-being of baby, mom, and other family members. Our generous donor community allows us to offer this home visit at no cost to our patients.

Your gift commitments of today will shape the rural health care of tomorrow and impact generations to come in Park County.

Last year, with the help of Betty and Whitney MacMillan, who so generously committed a significant lead gift and for whom we dedicated this year’s Erdman-Freeman Leadership in Philanthropy Award, the Livingston HealthCare Foundation established an Endowment. The security of an endowment will help to perpetuate the hospital’s high-quality service and dedication for future generations of our community.

An endowment gift to Livingston HealthCare Foundation today provides a brighter picture for our future. When you support an endowment, you give a gift with both immediate and long-term benefits. Endowment donations are invested and a portion of the annual income from the investments can be used to address immediate needs of the organization.

Your gift to Livingston HealthCare Foundation’s Endowment Fund will solidify the longevity of our organization, and with that, the health care services that are so critical to our community.
