Employee Giving

By making a contribution you become a vital part of our mission to enhance healthcare outcomes and improve the well-being of individuals and families. Your generosity can directly impact the lives of patients and fellow co-workers in need by providing financial assistance, funding innovative research, and supporting community outreach initiatives.


In It Together

Together, We Can Create a Lasting Impact 

The Employee Giving Campaign is a collaborative effort across Bassett Healthcare Network, allowing employees to contribute to the program or facility that resonates most with them. By enrolling in payroll deduction, employees can make a meaningful impact, with just $4 per pay period totaling a $100 annual gift. Together, we can enhance patient care and support our dedicated colleagues in their important work.

In 2025, our employees came together in a remarkable show of generosity, contributing $23,733.71 to the In It Together Campaign. A total of 55 employees participated, demonstrating our shared commitment to supporting our community.
