Stormont-Vail Foundation

A Mission of Giving
Sometimes when people or places have been around for a long time doing what we expect them to do, we take them for granted. It would be easy to do that with Stormont-Vail HealthCare. Since 1884, Stormont-Vail has enhanced the quality of life in northeast Kansas, through healing, teaching, and caring. And many of us have in some way been the beneficiaries of its mission and service. Some have had the benefit of inpatient treatment or an emergency room visit. Perhaps a member of your family has discovered treatable cancer through an early screening program.

Caregivers who have been taught or trained in our school of nursing, continuing education or certification programs are found throughout the community, quietly and competently doing their work of improving health in so many ways. Directly or indirectly, Stormont-Vail has contributed to the health or healing for most of us in the region. As generations before, you have counted on Stormont-Vail's care. You too can help ensure that generations to come can do the same.

Gratitude and loyalty to institutions that make our world a better place are easy to express. We need simply to give something in return. Some give time, others give talent and some give their treasures. The Stormont-Vail Foundation offers all who wish to give many options to do so.
