About Presbyterian Hospital Foundation
The Presbyterian Hospital Foundation is primarily a health system funder focused on supporting hospitals and clinical services in North Carolina, with the bulk of its dollars directed to Presbyterian Hospital and affiliated Novant Health institutions. Alongside major institutional support, the foundation makes smaller, targeted grants to community health clinics, behavioral health and social-service providers, and programs that expand access to medical care for underserved populations. Its giving is regionally concentrated in the Charlotte–Winston Salem corridor and emphasizes operational support for health care delivery and community outreach that connects patients to care.

About Presbyterian Hospital Foundation
Presbyterian Hospital Foundation’s recent giving is anchored by repeated support for Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Center, including grants of $5,234,300 in 2023, $4,506,394 in 2024, and $4,081,956 in 2025. That pattern shows a foundation that funds hospital operations and system support at a scale far above its community awards, while also backing affiliated medical centers and service lines across the Novant Health network. The foundation also directs substantial dollars to other parts of the health system, such as Novant Medical Group, Novant Health Inc., Presbyterian Medical Care Corp., and Forsyth Memorial Hospital Inc. Those grants point to a funder that prioritizes institutional stability, clinical capacity, and coordinated care delivery rather than isolated project funding. Alongside the largest hospital awards, it makes smaller community grants to local clinics and service organizations in Charlotte, including Charlotte Community Health Clinic Inc. and Care Ring Inc., showing a mix of system-level support and direct community access to care. Its active grant programs reinforce that pattern: research and education, cancer care, heart and vascular initiatives, pediatrics, and general medical center support. Across those areas, the foundation appears focused on strengthening the health-care infrastructure patients rely on in North Carolina.
