Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital

About Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital

Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital’s recent giving centers on direct support for local health access and basic needs in Lincoln County and nearby communities. The largest recent grant in the record, $20,750 to Lincoln County Health & Human Services in Newport, was directed to increase access to medical care. That same pattern continues through grants for food insecurity, childcare, shelter, and services for survivors of abuse and domestic violence, showing a foundation that funds both health care and the social conditions that shape it. The foundation’s grant list also shows repeated support for organizations serving families and older adults. Food Share of Lincoln County received grants in both 2024 and 2025 for reducing food insecurity, while Family Promise of Lincoln County received support for emergency shelter and stabilization services in two separate years. Other awards have gone to community organizations in Toledo, Depoe Bay, Gleneden Beach, and Albany, reflecting a local grantmaker focused on practical services rather than large, distant programs. This fits the foundation’s stated aim to improve access, build community, and support Samaritan’s mission of Building Healthier Communities Together across Benton, Lincoln, and Linn counties.
