Hospital Foundation
Mills-Peninsula enjoys a special partnership with the community -- a partnership based on a tradition of people supporting the excellent health care that defines Mills-Peninsula Health Services.

In 1973, the Mills Memorial Hospital Foundation was formed to strengthen the financial base of the hospital and direct its fund raising program. Today, the Foundation's fund raising efforts include corporate and foundation solicitations, planned giving and direct mail. A volunteer Board of Trustees consisting of community leaders, business executives and physicians governs the Foundation.
