The purpose of ACHF is to provide a foundation for the future of college health. To accomplish this goal, an endowment fund has been established which, through the generosity of both individuals and organizations, will grow and increase in value to provide funding for specific projects and educational activities benefitting the field of college health. To meet the various needs of the association and to provide donors with an opportunity to support areas of interest to them, the Foundation has established a variety of separate funds.
Participate in our matching gift challenge and help us meet our year-end fundraising goal! All donations made through December 31, 2020, will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Wellfleet Group, LLC (up to $10,000). ACHF has helped support many of the virtual educational opportunities that ACHA has provided to members this year, and your gifts and contributions in support of our Foundation will be even more meaningful as we continue to battle this pandemic and adapt to our changing campus health services environment.
