The Virginia Hospital Center Foundation was established to raise funds to help ensure that the Hospital has the resources needed to continue to provide the highest-quality healthcare to the community by expanding services, offering the most advanced medical technology, and providing care to all in need regardless of their ability to pay.

Virginia Hospital Center Foundation's leadership team is a reflection of its commitment to the future of healthcare and the Hospital.
