The Foundation for Healthcare Leaders of New York was established in 2021 to create sustainable funding for healthcare leadership development through scholarships and educational opportunities. With support from Healthcare Leaders of New York and our major donors, over 50 scholarships have been awarded to promising healthcare leaders.

The Foundation exists solely through the generous contributions of healthcare leaders, industry partners, and dedicated professionals committed to excellence in healthcare leadership.
