Very few hospitals today can maintain the best in health care technology and services without the help of some very special friends – their benefactors. Each year hundreds of generous donors – many of them former patients, foundations and local business leaders – contribute to the Sky Lakes Medical Center Foundation, making a difference in the lives of countless people who depend on their community medical center.

The Sky Lakes Medical Center Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation set up exclusively to receive donations to support the medical center’s programs and capital equipment needs.

There are a number of ways you can help. To make a contribution or to contact the Sky Lakes Medical Center Foundation, please call 541-274-4768. 

Overseen by a volunteer board of directors composed of community leaders, the Foundation is dedicated to helping Sky Lakes Medical Center fulfill its mission of reducing the burden of illness and injury, and improving the health of the communities it serves.
