Housed in the historical Taylor-Dunn home, the mission of Jess Parrish Medical Foundation is to inspire philanthropy and volunteerism in support of Parrish Medical Center’s mission of Healing Experiences for Everyone All the Time®. Our role is matching an individual's charitable interests with the needs of the hospital and the North Brevard community. While many individuals give to support the hospital's greatest needs, we are happy to talk to you about other needs and ways you can make a difference in the health and quality of life of our community.
Interest is what drives donor involvement with any kind of giving – be it time, talent, or treasure. Our current funding priorities are in the following categories:
We help ensure our community is maintaining healthy, independent lives with a variety of health services and programs.
We’re investing in our future by awarding medical scholarships to students who will one day provide healing care to our community and helping our children reach their full potential through programs and services offered not on the parents’ ability to pay but the child’s need.
From mammograms, cutting edge diagnostic tools and a focus on education and prevention, we’re providing medically necessary services and life-prolonging treatments to those in need.
None of this would be possible without caring individuals like you. YOU can transform the lives of patients and their families. YOU can change future generations. YOU can provide healing to our community.
Together, let’s improve, transform and save lives!
