Volunteers are needed at every level

Volunteers are needed at every level of the Foundation’s mission. Some help is simple and hands-on; other roles call for ongoing commitment to a committee or to the Board of Directors.

Everyday Help

  • Making phone calls
  • Sending out mailings
  • Demonstrations at health fairs

Deeper Commitment

  • Serving on a committee for a special event
  • Serving as a board member for the Foundation

The Community Health Foundation of Wright County thrives because neighbors step forward to share their time and talents. Whether you can spare an hour for a health fair or wish to take on a deeper commitment, your involvement directly strengthens the quality of life across our communities. Volunteers help with everyday tasks like making phone calls, sending out mailings, and assisting at community events, all of which keep the Foundation’s projects moving forward. For those ready to offer ongoing leadership, serving on a committee or joining the Board of Directors provides a meaningful way to shape the mission. Every donation of effort, no matter how small, creates healthier, safer, and better-informed communities throughout Wright County.

Monetary contributions are another vital way to support the Foundation’s work. Donations and memorials fund everything from hospice comfort care at Lakeside Oasis to wellness walks, butterfly releases, and fall dinner events that bring people together. These gifts sustain the building projects, educational efforts, and community programs that serve residents across the county. The Foundation is an independent nonprofit, and every dollar given stays local, directly improving the lives of friends and neighbors. By becoming a regular supporter or sponsoring an upcoming event, you join a legacy of generosity that has built a stronger, more connected Wright County. Your gift—whether large or small—makes a lasting difference.

Donate your time or your support

The Foundation’s work in Wright County is supported by people who give their time and by those who give financially. Both kinds of support help carry the mission forward.

If you would like to help, reach out and let us know what kind of involvement interests you. We will help you find a fit.

Where your involvement goes

CHF is an independent, non-profit 501(c)3 organization that exists to improve the quality of life for people in Wright County. For more than 25 years the Foundation has invested in grassroots efforts and organizations that impact health.

Much of that support centers on Lakeside Oasis, the end-of-life comfort care wing at Lake Ridge Care Center in Buffalo, which opened in July 2014.
