About Us

Since 1983, Baptist Memorial Health Care Foundation has provided the financial resources to support new medical research programs, technology upgrades, health and wellness program for hospital employees and the public, and scholarships for students who have been called to serve as the next generation of health care heroes. Together, we have changed countless lives.

Our success is a direct result of your generosity and the trust you place in us to do the most good with your gift. And for that, we are very grateful.

Our Mission

Based on the Baptist Memorial Health Care mission of Healing, Preaching and Teaching, Baptist Foundation supports Baptist Memorial Health Care in providing excellent care to patients in Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi. We partner together to advance patient care, address current health issues, help those most in need and mold new generations of health care professionals. Building on a 103-year tradition of providing award-winning care for patients from birth to the end of life, our passion is to raise funds and awareness for projects and services that encourage healthy behaviors and provide excellent health care for each of our patients and families. Our Christian mission motivates our compassion, and strengthens our ability to reach above and beyond, and to truly transform what it means to be a heath care provider.

There will always be a student in need of scholarship money. A patient praying for a financial blessing. An out-of-town heart transplant patient who needs a hotel room. And thanks to our wonderful donors, there will always be a Baptist Memorial Health Care Foundation to help them.
