About Miami Valley Hospital Foundation
Miami Valley Hospital Foundation’s largest recent grant was a $4,408,331 operating support award to Miami Valley Hospital in 2025, followed by similarly large operating support grants in 2024 and 2023. That pattern shows a funder that underwrites the core work of the hospital alongside smaller grants to affiliated health organizations and community partners in Dayton and nearby communities. The foundation supports Miami Valley Hospital and Premier Health through gifts for equipment, new technology, services, facility expansion, community outreach, and programs serving underserved populations. Recent awards also reach health centers, universities, and community health organizations, including Premier Health Partners, Five Rivers Health Center, Wright State University, and Ronald Mcdonald House. The grant list reflects a mix of institutional support and community-benefit funding rather than a single-purpose grantmaker. Its active programs point to health equity, behavioral health, birth outcomes, chronic disease management, and social determinants of health, with awards administered through Premier Health and hospital community-benefit structures. The foundation’s work is local and concentrated entirely in Ohio.
What Miami Valley Hospital Foundation Funds
A central theme is support for community health infrastructure. In 2025, Miami Valley Hospital Foundation gave $185,766 to Premier Health Partners for support, and $53,211 to Five Rivers Health Center for support, showing attention to organizations that deliver care in the Dayton area. Health services expansion also appears in the foundation’s stated priorities, which include equipment, new technology, and facility expansion. Another clear area is access-related support for community-serving institutions. The foundation awarded $43,377 to Wright State University in 2025 and $25,000 to Central State University in 2023, both listed as support. Housing and short-term patient support show up as well: Ronald Mcdonald House received $110,989 in 2025 and $101,740 in 2024. Across these examples, the foundation backs health-related organizations that connect clinical care, education, and community support.
How Miami Valley Hospital Foundation Gives
Typical grant size is modest compared with the largest awards: the p25 is $17,035, the median is $27,567, and the p75 is $101,740. The distribution is skewed by a small number of very large operating support grants, especially to Miami Valley Hospital. Recipients appear across multiple years, including Miami Valley Hospital, Premier Health Partners, Wright State University, Sinclair, and Compunet Clinical Laboratories, which points to recurring support rather than one-off giving. The foundation is structured as a hospital foundation and appears to use restricted program support alongside broader operating support. Active community-benefit programs accept unsolicited requests.
