Find Your Cause
Excellence in health care has been the primary focus of UNC Health Southeastern throughout the years. UNC Health Southeastern Foundation was formed to help continue to improve and expand these services. Your donation makes a difference! Here are the areas in greatest need of support:
The Academic Scholarship Endowment Program
Provides financial assistance to students in the surrounding region who wish to pursue careers in the medical, nursing and allied health care professions.
"With two small children, the money from Southeastern made it possible for me to pay for all of my textbooks and relieve some of the pressures of juggling school and family."
David Walters, RN, Emergency Services
The Ribbons for Cancer Recovery Endowment Fund
A perpetual fund that was created to assist cancer patients in need while they are receiving treatment through the Gibson Cancer Center. Patients receive financial assistance for medications, home medical equipment and transportation.
"It feels good to know that people care and give the support that we need as cancer patients."
Dianne Stephens, Gibson Cancer Center Patient
UNC Health Southeastern Heart and Vascular
A state-of-the-art facility that provides Robeson County residents with the most up-to-date cardiac treatment that is close to home, while also offering family-focused care for their loved ones.
"Southeastern Heart Center treated me like a king. I am so glad to have a facility that we can go and look to that is a state-of-the-art facility to provide services for people that have heart conditions."
Ray Cox, Southeastern Heart Center Patient
