This fund-raising office of the Citrus Memorial Health System was created in 2004, thus giving the organization a charitable arm to secure financial contributions to perpetuate the mission of Citrus Memorial. All charitable gifts are tax deductible under Section 501(C)3 to the extent provided by law. In 2010, Philanthropy was combined with the Marketing Department.

Did you know Citrus Memorial is the largest rural Community Hospital in the State of Florida?
Did you know community-owned hospitals provide 95 percent of all vital, but often unprofitable, health services in any community? As Citrus County's only community-owned hospital, Citrus Memorial reinvests all available revenues into equipment, facilities and programs. Citrus Memorial is governed by a local board comprised of your neighbors who serve without compensation.
The Philanthropy Department reports to a separate Advisory Council made up of local interested citizens. Unlike most other charities, nothing is taken from donations made to Citrus Memorial to pay for overhead or administrative costs. 100% of all gifts are utilized for those projects designated by the donor.

Healthcare facilities across the nation face numerous healthcare challenges, one of which is a rising population with limited or without any health insurance at all.
Only through financial investments from committed donors can our healthcare system continue to provide excellent, leading-edge medical care in a warm and inviting environment.
Currently we have exceeded the $1.5 M goal in charitable contributions toward the capital campaign to build the planned Family Care Health & Education Center. Commemorative naming opportunities currently exist for this project.
