Heartbeat of Hope

Baxter Health Foundation has launched the Heartbeat of Hope: Heart and Vascular Expansion Campaign, with a goal of raising $2 million to transform heart and vascular care in our community. This vital campaign is aimed at expanding access to life-saving heart and vascular treatments, ensuring that our neighbors have the best care right here at home.

Transforming Heart and Vascular Care

As part of Phase 1, we are excited to introduce a state-of-the-art cath lab, designed to enhance our ability to provide comprehensive diagnostic and interventional procedures. In 2024, Baxter Health performed 6,283 cardiac caths. This advanced facility will enable us to treat even more patients with greater precision and efficiency, keeping them close to home and minimizing the need to travel for specialized care.

The Power of Community Support

Thanks to the incredible generosity of the J.E. & L.E. Mabee Foundation, we are pleased to announce a $500,000 Challenge Grant. This grant will be unlocked when we reach our $2 million fundraising goal by October 1, 2025. Every donation made to the Heartbeat of Hope Campaign will not only contribute to a life-changing expansion of care but will also help us unlock the full potential of the Mabee Foundation’s challenge.

“The Heartbeat of Hope Campaign is an opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of our friends, neighbors, and loved ones,” says Sarah Edwards, Executive Director of Baxter Health Foundation. “We’ve witnessed the overwhelming generosity of our community and their dedication to improving healthcare in our region. Your support isn’t just funding a healthcare project — it’s an investment in the health and well-being of our entire community.
