Priority Initiatives

Focus Your Passion

It is such an exciting time to focus your passion for improving our community’s health and your philanthropic priorities. In addition to the work that our local hospitals do every day, philanthropy can enhance and in some cases sustain the Adventist Health programs that focus on our mission: Living God’s love by inspiring health, wholeness and hope.

Advancing Innovation Area of Greatest Need Fund

The biggest and most exciting opportunities do not always happen according to schedule. Gifts to our Area of Greatest Need Fund provide Adventist Health Sonora leaders with the flexibility to allocate resources where and when they are needed most. Gifts to this fund have helped purchase state-of-the-art equipment and technology, improved our physical campus and supported community projects.

When you give to Adventist Health Sonora Foundation’s Area of Greatest Need Fund, your unrestricted gift is instrumental in helping us provide the high-quality care for our patients.

AH Heart Care

Bringing Critical Cardiac Care to Sonora Heart Health

Gifts to our Cardiology Fund support the launch of a Percutaneous Coronary Intervention program, which will allow Adventist Health Sonora to care for patients having an active heart attack and eliminate the need to travel far from home for emergency cardiac care.

Your support also bolsters the construction of the new cardiac catheterization lab (cath lab), a first-of-its-kind facility to offer leading edge cardiac care right here in the Sierra foothills.
