Hurley Foundation

The Hurley Foundation's primary purpose is to operate for the advancement of medical sciences, education, medical care, and the delivery thereof, for the benefit of the residents of the greater metropolitan flint area and for the distribution of its funds to such institutions created, operated and maintained to provide such services by the governing body of the city of flint. The Foundation helps Hurley medical center fulfill its mission of "clinical excellence, service to people" in a competitive health care market. The Foundation facilitates charitable fundraising and volunteering to foster the medical center's leadership role in addressing issues which affect the health and well-being of mid-michigan residents.the Hurley Foundation supports Hurley medical center's Hurley children's hospital as the designated children's miracle network (cmn) hospital for the central region of Michigan. Through this relationship with cmn, their national partners, and other community resources, the Hurley Foundation raises approximately $2.9 million to support the treatment of children. Through these and other generous donations, the medical center is able to purchase special equipment, complete employee training and provide resources to the care teams that treat over 2,600 children per year and over an additional 600 infants through the medical center's neonatal intensive care unit. The Hurley Foundation plans and hosts many special events throughout the year to raise funds and awareness for critical services and programs. These include the Hurley annual benefit ball, fall golf classic to benefit the trauma & burn services funds, pink night palooza to benefit the breast cancer navigation fund, cmn miracle picnic, cmn radiothon and cmn bowlathon. Each year these events grow and serve the dual purpose of supporting one-of-a-kind and regional medical treatment to mid-michigan and beyond, while also serving to educate and inform those who attend. The Foundation's events serve as a springboard for donor and community engagement.the work of the Hurley Foundation focuses largely on supporting unfunded and underfunded services, provided at Hurley medical center, through solicitation of grants and donations. Among these special needs are the child life program, the video interaction program, the victims of crime assistance, hemophilia and oncology services, the nurse family partnership program, hospital elder life program, Hurley's food farmacy and many others. Without the Foundation's funding these critical services would be in jeopardy and access for our community could be lost.
