Welcome to the iGiving Donation Center!

Since its inception in 1987, the Pennock Foundation has served as a catalyst for developing and supporting community and health improvement programs. During the past decade, the Foundation has provided over 1.5 million dollars to improve the health status of our local communities.

Without your support, these projects would not be possible. Once again, we ask you to consider a donation to the Pennock Foundation as a way to continue your support to improving the ongoing needs of health and wellness throughout our community.

Your gift, no matter what size, makes a significant difference and we are grateful for your continued support. Donors will be recognized in our Annual Report to the community, and for donations over $100, your name will be added to the Pennock Hospital Recognition Plaque.
