The Walton County Health Care Foundation, Incorporated, created by the sale of the Walton Medical Center, awards grants to promote health and delivery of health care to the residents of Walton County, Georgia, but only to the extent such purposes are charitable, scientific or educational, and believed by the Foundation to be economically sound.
Walton Co Health Care Foundation In directs its grantmaking toward health care and related charitable, scientific, and educational purposes for residents of Walton County, Georgia. The largest recent award in the data was $4,593,430 to YMCA of Georgias Piedmont for a natatorium, followed by a $606,570 grant the prior year for the same project. That pattern points to a funder willing to support large facility projects when they are tied to community health and access. The foundation also backs local health-service infrastructure in Monroe and nearby communities. Walton Wellness Inc received $170,000 in 2024 and again in 2025 for health services, while City of Monroe received $300,000 for the City Green Splash Pad. Other awards support medical services, mental health, nutrition, recreation, and education connected to health. The foundation’s own summary says it was created by the sale of the Walton Medical Center and awards grants to promote health and the delivery of health care to Walton County residents, when the purposes are charitable, scientific, or educational and economically sound.
Community health and health-care delivery appear across the grant list in direct-service and facility-oriented work.

The foundation also supports mental health and trauma-related services. Walton Resource Court received $28,623 in 2025 for mental health, and Masters Touch Recreational Riding received $30,000 in 2024 for an equine therapy program.
