Introducing ECU Health Foundation

The ECU Health Foundation was created to align the fundraising and stewardship operations of the ECU Medical & Health Sciences Foundation and the Vidant Health Foundation.

Make a difference in the lives of children this holiday season

Consider making a positive impact this holiday season for children throughout eastern North Carolina. Your kindness will bring hope and happiness to these young patients and their families during this special time of year.

November 28 is #GivingTuesday!

Help us in ensure no patient in need goes hungry! The ECU Health Medical Food Pantry provides patients who are screened as food insecure with an emergency bag of non-perishable food. Each bag is designed to sustain patients for up to two weeks and is tailored to meet their immediate nutritional needs for healing.

Give a gift of hope

One of our community’s most noticeable signs of the holiday season is the Lights of Love tree located on the ECU Health Medical Center campus in Greenville.

This is your opportunity to give a gift as a tribute to a loved one, friend or colleague who has had an impact on your life or the lives of others in our community.

Get Involved!

Make an impact! With you, we are committed to making better health care a reality in eastern North Carolina. Through your generous donations and unwavering support, we are experiencing remarkable growth and developing new relationships and partnerships that allow us to transform health care from Windsor to Kenansville and from Tarboro to the coast – and many communities in between.

ECU Health Cancer Care

We’ve used Foundation funds to increase early detection and screening, as well as survivorship and support programs — but we need to do more. Why? Because eastern North Carolina has a higher cancer mortality rate than the rest of the state — a statistic we can change with your help.

Children's Miracle Network

Since 1983, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals has been raising funds for hospitals across the United States and Canada — and our very own Maynard Children’s Hospital is one of them.

ECU Health Heart & Vascular

With internationally recognized specialists in cardiovascular care, ECU Health offers the very best in heart and vascular services at every one of our hospitals. Our expertise comes together, however, at East Carolina Heart Institute — an incredible state-of-the-art facility made possible largely through Foundation funds.

Regional Partners

The ECU Health Foundation raises funds and channels them toward health-related projects throughout eastern North Carolina. And the best part is that your gift stays local — every penny. It helps fund leading-edge equipment, new facilities and programs, meaning your friends and family can receive the care they need in their home community.
