New Hyde Park, N.Y.-based Northwell Health is publicly launching a seven-year, $1 billion fundraising campaign to support capital, research and innovation initiatives.
"Outpacing the Impossible: the Northwell Campaign" has raised almost $500 million since Jan. 1, 2016, but during an event Oct. 17 with over 600 of Northwell's highest-level donors, the organization made the campaign public. It will fund innovation and research in areas such as pediatrics, women's health, veteran programs and development of Northwell facilities in New York cities.
"Philanthropy is critical to Northwell Health," said Brian Lally, Northwell's senior vice president and chief development officer. "Philanthropy is our investment back into our communities and helps us to take better care of more people."
The campaign has four key pillars: drive to discover, disruptive thinking, pioneering solutions and seeing people fully.
