Corporate Partnerships Update

Princeton Medical Center Foundation Partners Program 

The Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center Foundation Partners Program is celebrating its one-year anniversary. The program was created to allow corporations to dedicate funding to specific Penn Medicine Princeton Health projects or programs that fall within their giving structure. To date, more than $100,000 has been raised from organizations large and small, who have joined Princeton Health in the interest of ensuring that our community receives exceptional healthcare. 

An example of one of the remarkable partnerships is our relationship with Firmenich, which has been a long-time generous donor. This past year, Firmenich expanded its philanthropy to help us reduce food insecurity through their support of Project Thrive, which fosters well-being and enriches the lives of Princeton Health employees. Firmenich also supported the community’s veterans and first responders with a gift to Penn Medicine Princeton House Behavioral Health’s First Responders Treatment Services, and Firmenich employees came together to collect clothing to help fill our Wellness Wardrobe, which provides clothing for patients who are in need.

CEO Roundtables

Princeton Health launched a series of CEO Roundtables, with corporate leaders in our area and James Demetriades, CEO, Penn Medicine Princeton Health. Through these roundtables, Princeton Health provided timely health updates — particularly as we navigated the COVID-19 pandemic — and sought feedback from corporate leaders in our area on ways the hospital could continue to support our corporate neighbors and their employees. If your organization would like to participate in future meetings, please contact Brannan Berman at Brannan.Berman@pennmedicine.upenn.edu. 

Matching Gift Programs

Matching gift programs are an opportunity for companies to help engage their employees in small acts of kindness that can contribute to major change. After an employee donates to a nonprofit, they can submit a matching gift request to their employer and the company will make an additional donation to that nonprofit. It's an easy way to double your contribution to us! To find out if your employer participates in a matching gift program, please contact your human resources department.
