Reasons to Give
Your Donation Goes Farther Through Foundation Giving
When you make a gift to a healthcare foundation like Palm Healthcare, you are making an investment with a strong rate of return. According to a 2008 study by The Philanthropic Collaborative, for every dollar a foundation gives to health and wellness programs, more than seven dollars of economic benefits and savings go back into the community.

We’ve become a trusted neutral partner in our role as a convener, bringing together the people and organizations that share common goals. We help reduce duplication of efforts and create greater solutions than any one group could accomplish alone. Our mission is to truly transform healthcare challenges through new and innovative ideas that are born out of collaboration.
Healthcare Solutions That Touch You, Your Neighbors, and Those Most in Need
Our reach is as broad and diverse as Palm Beach County. We have made an impact through region-wide programs that touch all residents, and we have made a difference in the lives of your neighbors just around the corner. We are focused on transforming many of the common healthcare challenges we face, and leveraging creative solutions for emerging causes in need of that all-important initial support.
Oversight and Accountability to Ensure Your Gift Does the Most Good
Palm Healthcare Foundation has provided over $40 million to over 100 non-profit organizations in Palm Beach County since its inception in 2001. We monitor every one of our grantee programs and have strict evaluation, measurement and tracking guidelines to ensure the programs we fund deliver on their objectives.
Sound Investment Strategies = Stability for the Long Term
Not only do we make wise investments in our community, we are ahead of the pack on our financial strategies as well, protecting our donors’ precious resources. A national and international group of well-respected financial firms and investment managers oversee our portfolio. We adhere to strict investment guidelines and have a seasoned finance and investment committee review all investment activity on a monthly basis and explore the most relevant strategies given these challenging economic times. While the recent downturn in the economy has affected our endowment, our returns frequently have been above market averages and we have been able to avoid large losses during down markets.
