As the cornerstone of support for Lucas County Health Center’s mission, our Foundation strives to address healthcare needs by raising awareness and providing avenues for philanthropic giving. Local access to high-quality care is something we take for granted while we’re healthy, but are thankful for when we become ill or injured. Through our Foundation, individuals have the opportunity to make meaningful contributions to the hospital, positively impacting the lives of those we serve. Join us in making a difference and ensuring the continued provision of exceptional healthcare services for our community.
