Committed to Care, Poised for Progress

South Shore Health has gone through a remarkable transformation over the last century. We began in 1922 as a cottage hospital with 20 patient beds and today, we are a top-ranked, comprehensive health system that provides care in 22 locations across the South Shore.  

Give now and protect the privilege of having a world-class health system in our own backyard— today and for generations to come. You can choose to support a specific program or department or direct your donation to the South Shore Health Fund which provides a flexible funding source for programs and projects with urgent and/or unexpected needs. Our patients and community appreciate your goodwill which funds technological advances, improves facilities, supports the underserved, and expands vital programs.

Thank you.
