ABOUT US

Originating in 1961, the Trumbull Memorial Hospital Foundation continues to develop, manage and provide resources to improve the health and quality of life for the people of the communities it serves.

Established as an endowment fund for memorial gifts and contributions, the TMH Foundation was officially incorporated in 1976 and now serves as an outreach agent for Trumbull Memorial Hospital. The TMH Foundation's assets currently stand at more than 10 million dollars.

Originally intended to give financial assistance to, and thereby support the work of the hospital, the TMH Foundation has moved beyond the walls of TMH into the community as well. In 2009, the TMH Foundation awarded more than $64,000 in grants.In addition to the community and hospital grants, the foundation supported scholarships, patient needs and hospital projects with a total contribution of more than $680,000 for the year.

Committed to all areas of health, the TMH Foundation has worked with local schools, mental health organizations and a diverse array of social agencies to address total wellness in health and healing.

The TMH Foundation remains a unique entity in TrumbullCounty, devoted to making a significant, long-term impact on community health. For more information, contact the TMH Foundation at 330-841-1900.
