The Regions Hospital Foundation Corporate Council is making change happen
The Regions Hospital Foundation’s focus is improving the health and well-being of the Twin Cities and beyond. But how can the foundation make the most impact when there are so many opportunities for change? This is a question that the Regions Hospital Foundation Corporate Council is working to answer.
Our corporate council is comprised of a select group of companies doing business in the Twin Cities east metro. While these companies span different industries, one thing they have in common is a passion for improving the quality of life for those who live and work in our community. A particular focus of the council is improving health equity and access to care for underserved populations.
Through connection, volunteerism and charitable giving, council members are partners in innovation and philanthropy.
