About the Sparrow Foundation

Since 1896, UM Health-Sparrow’s roots have been planted in philanthropy, from the first donation of a plot of land from E. W. UM Health-Sparrow to the gifts we receive today. The Sparrow Foundation was launched in 1960 to help improve the health of the people in our communities by providing quality, compassionate care to everyone, every time. As a nonprofit health system owned and governed by the community, our mission is to connect your passion with a purpose.

Your gift to the Sparrow Foundation transforms patient care and services, promotes community wellness, and enhances technology to expand the possibilities of health care. You can choose to make a lasting impact by giving to a specific service line or site of care including E.W. UM Health-Sparrow Hospital, University of Michigan Health-University of Michigan Health-University of Michigan Health-Sparrow Specialty Hospital, or one of our four community hospitals: UM Health-Sparrow Carson, UM Health-Sparrow Clinton, UM Health-Sparrow Eaton, UM Health-Sparrow Ionia.
