Everyday Research Advancements

When Lowell General Hospital was founded in 1891, we opened our doors to the community as a welcoming place where patients always come first. That mission is at the heart of how we provide healthcare to all who come through our doors today.

Care at Home, formerly known as Home Health Foundation, leads the way in community healthcare by always putting people first. We make it simple for people to receive home, palliative and hospice care when and where they need it. Whether we’re delivering nursing support to your doorstep or bedside within High Pointe House, we’re here to care for you.

There are so many ways to make a difference in healthcare. Events organized by our grateful patients and family members, employees, volunteers and supporters raise vital funds for patient care and research at Tufts Medicine.

There are many ways to have an impact and give back to healthcare in your community. We’re here to help you find the right fit for your gift by phone or mail, in any amount.

For a flexible and impactful way to show your philanthropic support that also offers immediate tax benefits, look no further than donor-advised funds (DAF).

No one believes in our mission more than those on the front lines of care — our employees. Whether you work in accounts payable, at High Pointe House, as part of a care team, in urgent care or in a research lab, supporting our programs can be as easy as an automatic payroll deduction.

Employer-matched gifts double your giving impact. It’s your employer's way of helping you support organizations and causes that are important to you.

Estate and planned gifts leave a lasting legacy of caring for family, friends, neighbors and those who will pass through our doors for generations to come.

Your gift of appreciated securities directly supports our work to create a better healthcare experience for our community — all while offering tax benefits for you.

Find a way to make a difference that’s as unique as you are. By giving in-kind goods or services to our hospitals, you can support our patients, people and mission.

Honor the special people and moments in your life with a tribute or memorial gift. A tribute gift is a thoughtful way to recognize a person, milestone or occasion that’s close to your heart. And should you desire to remember a loved one who has passed away, a memorial gift can make a meaningful difference.

Sometimes the most important gift we can give is our time. By volunteering at one or several of our hospitals and organizations, you’re making an impact in your community — and letting our community make an impact on you.
