Welcome to Medical Center Foundation of Hartford - Home

Since 1977, the Medical Center Foundation of Hartford has had a rich history of helping individuals in Hartford and surrounding communities use the services of our hospital.

With generous support from community members like you, our Foundation can help those in our community in need of services they otherwise cannot afford.

You can be assured the money donated to this Foundation stays in our community to help local families, neighbors, and friends.

President's Message

So many in need

With the economic slump and the stock market up one day and down the next, it's no wonder area residents are relying more and more on our community programs. 

Hearing stories from individuals who benefit from our Foundation programs brings warmth to my heart, and I hope to yours as well.  Just think about the aging man, caring for his wife who suffers from Alzheimer's/dementia.  With his physical limitations, he is unable to bathe her or transport her on his own.  Enter the Foundation’s adult day center and the Foundation transportation programs!

With your support, our programs remain an integral part of this community, and continue to help the increasing number of people in need.  Donations to our Foundation help to keep our patient transportation, adult day service, in-home personal emergency response and sexual assault nurse examiner programs alive.  We cannot maintain these programs without you!  So please, remember to give generously, open your hearts, and help those relying on our programs.

Warmest wishes for a beautiful Fall!

Iris I. Hulbert, President
