Why should I consider donating to the Squirrel Hill Health Center?
The
Squirrel Hill Health Center is a non-profit, federally qualified health
center, meaning that a significant percentage of its operating budget
consists of grant money provided by the federal government. The center
also supports itself from commercial insurance, medical assistance,
self pay patients and generous donations and grants from community
partners and supporters. Because we serve patients without insurance
and apply discounted rates to those with financial need, a gap exists
between the center's costs and revenue. We invite you to contribute to
our mission of providing top quality medical care to all individuals,
regardless of their ability to pay. Your support will help the center
defray its costs and continue to operate at full capacity in order to
serve our patients to full potential. Please note because SHHC is a
501(c)(3), all donations are tax deductible. We will gladly give you a
donation receipt.
To make a donation by mail directly to the health center:
Please make checks payable to "Squirrel Hill Health Center" and write "Donation" in the memo line.
Mail to: Attention: Barbara Johnson, CFO Squirrel Hill Health Center 200 JHF Drive Pittsburgh, PA 15217
Thank you for your generous support!
As a community health center, SHHC receives an annual federal grant from the Bureau of Primary Health Care, administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration.
