Williston Foundation

Mercy Medical Foundation was formed in 1983 as a separate 501c3. In April 2016, the Mercy Medical Foundation became "CHI St. Alexius Health Williston Foundation". Our foundation remains an independent, local entity which raises funds for direct needs at our Williston location. The mission of the Foundation is to support programs and projects related to health care of the hospital. The ultimate recipient of a gift could be a member of your family, a close friend, or a neighbor receiving care at CHI St. Alexius Health Williston. Consider the Foundation in memory of a loved one or in your estate planning to impact today and in the future! Donations to the Foundation are tax deductible and can provide considerable tax advantages.

The Foundation Team works under the management of a Board of Directors comprised of community leaders and area residents, along with Hospital leadership, who meet to set a program of work to accomplish the goal of fundraising for hospital needs, building the endowment fund, and carrying out projects essential to growth and development.

Events and Campaigns

Williston has grown, and our health care needs have too. Our Emergency Room, built for a much smaller community, is now critically outdated and undersized, compromising patient privacy and safety. We have launched a vital campaign to transform our Outpatient Surgery Center into a state-of-the-art ER, significantly expanding our capacity and improving care for everyone. Your support is crucial to making this "perfect new home" for our ER a reality.

Ready to make an impact? Join us in ensuring top-tier emergency care is available right here, when it's needed most.
