Mission Statement

Since its founding more than a century ago, Oregon Health & Science University has become Oregon’s only health and research university. Its mission is both fundamental and profound: to improve the health and well-being of the state and its citizens.

The foundation exists to secure private philanthropic support to advance OHSU's vital missions, and to invest and manage gifts responsibly to honor donors’ wishes.

Description

OHSU has designated two independent nonprofit foundations -- the Oregon Health & Science University Foundation and Doernbecher Children’s Hospital Foundation. Each year tens of thousands of donors contribute millions of dollars in financial support to OHSU through these organizations. The foundations also oversee the efforts of hundreds of volunteers who participate in community-based fund-raising programs and events supporting OHSU. Both the OHSU Foundation and Doernbecher Foundation are governed by boards of trustees made up of business, civic and philanthropic leaders. Trustees are responsible for formulating long-range goals and policies while a full-time staff manage day-to-day operations.
