A message from Foundation President Crystal Miller

IU Health Foundation leverages the power of philanthropy to support the IU Health vision of making Indiana one of the nation’s healthiest states. When you give to IU Health, you aren’t just making a donation—you’re making all the difference.

All the Difference: The Campaign for Indiana's Health is driven by the vision of better health for all. There is not a moment — or a life — to waste. Philanthropic investment in Indiana University Health will elevate lives and livelihoods for generations to come. Robust philanthropy is vital to our ability to look beyond today, to think innovatively, to stretch further, to accelerate implementation, to take the risks that lead to breakthroughs.

Thanks to philanthropic support, IU Health is helping patients live longer and better. We are arming our clinicians with state-of-the art tools and knowledge. We are taking healthy habits and practical solutions beyond hospital walls and into our communities. We are building spaces that deliver the future of healthcare. None of this is possible without our donors. We are grateful for your partnership to make Indiana healthier.

IU Health Foundation was formed in 2018 by integrating individual foundations within IU Health into a bigger, stronger Foundation that attracts the transformative gifts IU Health needs to improve Hoosiers’ health. The Foundation honors the intentions of past donors and historic philanthropic relationships, while taking advantage of synergies and efficiencies created through integrated work. We also ensure that local stays local; your gift goes where you want it to go.
