Foundation Details
St. Luke's Elmore Foundation encourages excellence in local health care by providing funding for new equipment and health care-related projects that meet the strategic needs of St. Luke's Elmore Medical Center. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation dedicated to community and financial support for St. Luke's Elmore Medical Center.
Established in 2001 as the Elmore Foundation, we owe our existence to a handful of dedicated individuals who made a commitment to the community to ensure that Elmore Medical Center (now St. Luke's Elmore) continued to provide quality health care close to home.
The Foundation has accomplished much in our short history, including funding our Long Term Care Unit patient van and mechanical patient lift, helipad construction, portable bone densitometer, defibrillator, C-arm digital x-ray machine, infant warmer, colonoscope, and new ventilator.
