Ashland Community Health Foundation is partnering with our community to support better health
Over 45 Years of Community Impact
We grant funds to high-impact programs that support our community’s health and wellness
We’re reimagining the future of health care in our community. With an expanded mission to invest in programs throughout Ashland, Talent, and Phoenix, we are extending our reach and impact. At the same time, Ashland Community Health Foundation is returning to its roots — supporting local hospital and community partners to improve access to quality health care for all of our neighbors.
Community Health & Wellness
We support projects that create and expand access to services that promote health and wellness for all.
Evans Nursing Scholarship
Since its creation in 2002, over 415 scholarships have been awarded to more than 340 nursing students.
Innovation Initiatives
Since 1977 the foundation has supported Ashland’s hospital and community-based organizations with grants for new and innovative projects, programs, and educational opportunities.
Giving Opportunities
Lights for Life
Our annual Lights for Life campaign is a celebration of life and gratitude. In it’s 37th year, Lights for Life is an opportunity to honor or remember someone special to you and help build a healthy community at the same time.
Throughout the month of December, your donation will be symbolized by lights on our Lights for Life trees in Ashland, Talent, and Phoenix.
Supporting Our Community
Building Partnerships
Each December, ACHF collects new mittens, gloves, and hats for K-5 students in the Phoenix-Talent and Ashland school districts. The drive runs throughout the month, with collection bins located at the ACHF office, as well as satellite locations in Ashland, Talent, and Phoenix.
“Seeing the joy on the children’s faces as they receive their own pair of mittens warms my heart. It’s a simple gesture, but it reminds them that they are cherished members of our community.” (Tiffanie Lambert, ACHF Board Member)
