An Evolution of Supporting a Healthier Wilson Community
Healthcare Foundation of Wilson (HFW) was established on February 28, 2014 when Wilson Medical Center was purchased and then subsequently managed and operated by Duke LifePoint Healthcare. HFW became the health legacy charitable foundation established to support the health and wellness of our community through grantmaking. Joining a growing number of conversion foundations, HFW is responsible for managing the assets associated with the former nonprofit hospital. The assets received, as well as prior hospital reserves, were combined to establish Healthcare Foundation of Wilson as an organization that honors generations of dedication and generosity by strategically investing the funds back into the community. As good stewards of the Foundation’s assets, we continually invest back into Wilson through impactful grantmaking and nonprofit capacity building efforts, with the objective of improving health and wellness for all.
