MHHC Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Morris Heights Health Center,
is cognizant of the importance of decisive action and unremitting support
of a collective in addressing health and social disparities for those
we serve. Since 1997, the Foundation has mobilized over $50 million through
its annual Impact Awards Gala, to enhance the programs of MHHC and support
the more than 57,000 patients who call the multi-site health system their
medical home.
In 2013, the Foundation established a need-based scholarship program to
provide financial support to low-income, college-bound students from the
Bronx-empowering our youth to seek diverse, postsecondary academic opportunities.
To date, the MHHC Foundation has awarded 63 scholarships totaling $320,000
to Bronx students. It is collaborative and reputable community partners
that provide the necessary framework for us to continue living out our
vision of "Improving Health, Impacting Lives."
