Employees Give Back
Northside Hospital is committed to building strong and healthy communities through financial support and volunteerism. Our workplace giving programs, managed by the Northside Foundation Department, bridge the gap between healthcare and basic needs for patients, employees, and communities.
In 2023, volunteers donated over 16,000 hours of their time to community service projects in the hospital's service areas through our Northside Hospital Community Connection - Employee Volunteer Program.
Northside employees also pledged over $1 million to support patients, employees and the community in 2023 during our annual Employee Giving Campaign (EGC), our annual financial giving initiative.
