Pacific Communities Health District Foundation

Local women are embarking on an exciting program to support the health care needs of area women and children and to celebrate the growing impact of women as philanthropists. Working with the Pacific Communities Health District Foundation, these women are a part of the Women’s Giving Circle, which features two major components:

• Collective philanthropy: Each participant donates an equal amount to a fund, which is distributed to local projects that benefit women and children within the scope of patient care provided by Samaritan Pacific Health Services. Participants develop fund distribution criteria, investigate projects firsthand and award funds personally with help from the foundation.
• Education and celebration events: Based on the needs and interests of participants in the Women’s Giving Circle, the group gathers at least once a year for an educational opportunity regarding health care and philanthropy, to vote on fund distribution to projects and to meet with previous recipients. The event is designed to educate, empower, and inspire.

Please join us!
