WHO WE ARE — Since 2000, the Helen Keller Hospital Foundation, Inc. has helped ensure our hospital delivers the most advanced healthcare possible to the people of Northwest Alabama. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, the Foundation has contributed over $2 million toward renovations, facility expansions, and life-saving medical equipment.

Why Give?

Your donation directly supports Helen Keller Hospital’s mission to provide compassionate, high-quality care close to home. Every gift makes a difference — improving patient care, enhancing services, and advancing technology. All contributions are tax-deductible and cumulative. We gratefully accept gifts in many forms, including cash donations, appreciated securities, real estate, and memorial or tribute gifts. Donations can be unrestricted or designated for a specific purpose within the hospital. For memorial and tribute gifts, we’re honored to notify the honoree or their family of your thoughtful contribution.
