Henry Ford Health is relentless

Today, more than 100 years into our journey of service to the Detroit area and surrounding communities, we are compelled to accelerate our capabilities.

To rise above. To reach beyond.

Rising to the challenge

To advocate for our patients and our region, to push our nation’s healthcare in rising above its present limitations, Henry Ford Health intends to lead, to invent the future, to forge a new path toward the cost-effective, accessible, superior care our communities deserve.

Rising above and reaching beyond. It’s what you’d expect from Henry Ford Health — a relentless advocate for making the impossible possible. Please join us in Rising Above, Reaching Beyond: The Campaign for Henry Ford Health.

Fueling potential

To remain at the vanguard of 21st-century medicine, Henry Ford Health, in partnership with its philanthropic stakeholders, will harness an ingrained spirit of ingenuity to fundamentally transform health care and tackle today’s greatest health challenges.

To achieve this goal, Henry Ford Health has launched an auspicious, comprehensive $750 million fundraising campaign to advance four key pillars.

Superior, seamless patient-centered care

Together, we will go above and beyond to deliver the care Detroit and Michigan deserve

With your support, this campaign will deliver:

• Modern, accessible patient-oriented facilities that improve care experiences and hospital stays for local residents and those who travel for our care.
• Advancements in high-quality medical care provided by the best and brightest workforce.
• Enhanced, deeply integrated specialties in cancer, heart and vascular, orthopedics, neurosciences and more.
• Increased access to digital health and telemedicine solutions so patients can tap our clinical expertise from anywhere — vital to those who can’t travel.

Research, discovery and innovation

Together, we will go above and beyond to relentlessly innovate the healthcare of tomorrow

With your support, this campaign will:

• Build a shared Health Sciences research center with Michigan State University.
• Create new research funds and endowed positions that will attract and retain top physicians, scientists and educators.
• Fuel new investigations and treatment innovations addressing multiple sclerosis, breast cancer, heart disease and more.
• Blend the science of research with the practicalities of implementation, so that our patients are the first to benefit.

Leading-edge clinical education

Together, we will go above and beyond to train - and retain - tomorrow's top clinicians

With your support, this campaign will:

• Grow the doctoral and post-doctoral fellowships and endowed faculty positions that are crucial in recruiting top talent.
• Enhance educational environment and infrastructure so we can teach students in modern spaces — instead of trying to fit high-tech academics into pre-computer-age rooms.
• In line with our commitment to healthcare equity, prioritize the development of new health professionals from underrepresented communities. Our pathway programs smooth the way to health careers for diverse local candidates who bring new ideas, important viewpoints and heartfelt dedication to our region.

Community health equity

Together, we will go above and beyond to bring better health to all

This campaign will accelerate our commitment to:

• Building facilities to improve patient care, and ensuring that care will be financially accessible and culturally welcoming.
• Elevating research efforts that emphasize improving health for diverse communities that are often left behind by medical science.
• Expanding the education of new clinicians, and developing career pathways for health professionals from underrepresented communities.
