Foundation of Ministry Saint Clare's Hospital

Our Mission

Our mission is to improve the health and well-being of all people, especially the poor and vulnerable, in the communities we serve.

Angels Among Us

“The warmth of an angel’s light can comfort and illuminate the whole world.”

We all want to make a difference. We give of ourselves and our lives; our time and our talents. When you give to the Foundation of Ministry Saint Clare’s Hospital, your donation will directly impact hundreds of people. Would you like to express your gratitude for an angel in your life, or become one of the many angels who support our patients in need?

Please open your heart and share the gift of gratitude. In the words of Mother Teresa ...

“The needs are great, and none of us ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.”

Your compassion can truly help someone in need.
