Area of Greatest Need

At the AdventHealth Southwest Florida Foundation, we believe generosity has the power to transform lives. When you support our Area of Greatest Need Fund, you're helping advance programs and priorities that enhance care for patients, guests and team members throughout Charlotte County.

Your gift stays local, and 100% of your donation supports the area you choose. This flexibility allows us to respond to emerging opportunities, invest in innovative solutions and strengthen whole-person care when and where it's needed most.

Because of generous community support, we've been able to expand health education programs, enhance emergency care services and fund vital equipment and technology including advanced imaging, cardiac care enhancements and other transformative investments that improve the patient experience.
