Institutional Giving

For over 50 years, MAHEC has been a trailblazer in educating healthcare professionals and delivering high-quality healthcare to the people of Western North Carolina, working together with a coalition of institutions, corporate partners, philanthropists, and community leaders who share our bold vision.

At the heart of everything we do are our core commitments to healthcare access, education, and community health—driving us to advance health equity and create lasting, positive change for all. Together, we are shaping a healthier, more equitable future for our region.

Foundation and Government Support

Grants from local and national foundations and government agencies provide critical support for MAHEC operations and core MAHEC initiatives, including maternal health, rural health initiatives, behavioral health, and community health services. Grant funding makes so much possible at MAHEC, throughout the communities we serve and online.

We thank these organizations for their commitment to improving health outcomes in Western North Carolina. For more information on joining these foundations, contact Elizabeth Flemming at 828-257-4466.
