We empower and connect donors to programs and initiatives through capital campaigns and unrestricted funds that save lives and improve the health of our communities, one person at a time.

Support our most critical needs or capital campaigns. With your unrestricted donation, our foundations are able to support the most critical needs across Novant Health.

Here are some ways we help Novant Health make a difference:
  • Maintaining an active community health outreach program.
  • Demonstrating superior outcomes for many health conditions as indicated by Novant Health’s state and national quality scores.
  • Creating innovative programs that address important health issues. Many of its programs and services are recognized nationally.
  • Transforming patient care at the bedside.

Capital campaigns are planned as needs arise for new buildings and equipment. Please consider supporting a future campaign, to ensure that we will always have excellent facilities in which to serve our community’s healthcare needs. An unrestricted gift is a contribution in which the donor places no restrictions. Unrestricted funds are extremely important because so many needs cannot be anticipated and do not fall within specific categories. They give us the flexibility to meet the most critical needs across Novant Health.

Working Towards Food Security for All.

In partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC, Novant Health established the emergency food pack program in Winston-Salem-based Novant Health medical group clinics in July 2022. Since its launch in 2022, the Emergency Food Pack program has provided more than 15,700 food packs to community members in need, offering immediate relief during moments of uncertainty and helping families bridge critical gaps in access to nutritious food.

Did you know...
  • 14% of North Carolinians are food insecure: in 2018, that was 1.39 million people.
  • Food insecurity is associated with multiple increased health risks: birth defects, diabetes, anemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, oral health problems, poor sleep outcomes, aggression and anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation.
  • 80% of a person’s health is attributable to social, physical and health factors outside of clinical care. Addressing root causes is a key component of whole-patient care -- prioritizing social determinants of health is the right thing to do for our patients.

In addition to the food boxes, Novant Health connects these families with social services and other resources to address the family needs. With your gift of $15, $30, $60 or more, you can provide individuals and families with assistance until they can be connected with a long-term solution.
