Community Sponsorships

The St. Charles Health System mission is "To improve the health of those we serve in a spirit of love and compassion." We extend our mission beyond our walls by contributing a limited amount of funds each year to other not-for-profit organizations who share our vision for a healthy community.

Our sponsorship priorities

We focus our community giving primarily on projects and programs that promote or support health, health education and human services. We place special emphasis on requests related to the Central Oregon communities where St. Charles provides services.

Our process

Sponsorships are awarded on a quarterly basis. Please submit your request at least 6 months in advance of your event in order to be considered. Due to the high volume of sponsorship requests we receive, the sponsorship application on page two must be completed and returned to us via email, fax or mail for consideration.
