The Foundation

Our Foundation board is made up of business and private people from various backgrounds that are interested in the same things you are–including developing the quality of life in this region. Why not join with us by making a tax-deductible donation that will make a positive impact on you and the lives of many others in our community?

The Good Shepherd Community Health Foundation was formed in February 1995 as an agent of change. We strongly encourage local residents to give of themselves in support of organizations and causes that will promote the health and well being of our community.

The Mission of the Good Shepherd Community Health Foundation is to enhance the quality of life and general health of residents living in the West Umatilla and Morrow County communities.

Resources are provided to worthy projects and individuals best illustrating foundation ideals and fulfilling the health needs of our communities.
