Caring for and sharing the financial resources we hold in trust for others History Three Sisters of Providence arrived at the Medford depot in 1911 to begin a labor of love in the Rogue Valley. They were committed to finding ways of providing care for those less fortunate. For nearly 100 years, Providence Medford Medical Center has never wavered from the Sisters’ goal of quality life for all people, and never has a person been knowingly turned away. The story is one of faith and hard work in response to a community’s needs, and also a story of community response and support for the Sisters’ vision. Together, it is a story of continual growth and excellence in health care for the people of southern Oregon and northern California. Philanthropic Mission Providence Community Health Foundation was officially chartered in 1977 as a non-profit organization with the sole purpose of raising funds to advance the following objectives: Assist, encourage, promote and advance the care, treatment and rehabilitation of sick, afflicted, infirm, and injured persons at Providence Medford Medical Center.
