The Elizabeth Gamble Deaconess Home Association is a highly focused health-care funder that channels virtually all of its resources to sustaining a single institution: The Christ Hospital Health Network in Cincinnati. Its giving appears intended as mission and operational support for a faith-affiliated hospital system that serves the local community. The foundation functions more like an institutional benefactor/endowment for one major health provider than a diversified grantmaker.
Highly concentrated: almost all funding goes to one repeat grantee (The Christ Hospital Health Network) in a few large grants, indicating long-term, institution-level support rather than distributed or project-based giving.
