Transforming health, one gift at a time.

SUPPORT UOFL HEALTH

Our History and Mission

The UofL Health Foundation was created in 2021 with one purpose: to empower compassionate care and groundbreaking innovation at UofL Health through philanthropy.

As a not-for-profit academic health system, UofL Health serves as a vital safety net for the greater Louisville region—delivering expert care through eight hospitals, four medical centers, the Brown Cancer Center, and more than 250 care locations.

In collaboration with the University of Louisville School of Medicine, we advance clinical research, pioneer new treatments, and bring cutting-edge technologies to the bedside—improving health outcomes for every patient we serve.

With more than 14,000 dedicated professionals working to transform health in every corner of our community, we rely on the generosity of the community and our grateful patients to ensure that cutting edge care is available to all who need it.

The UofL Health Foundation is committed to a healthier tomorrow—for Louisville, for Kentucky, and for every life we touch.
