    Owensboro Health Foundation invites you to its annual Celebration of Gratitude on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at the Owensboro Convention Center. This special event is our opportunity to honor the donors who so generously make a profound difference in healthcare across our community.

    Thanks to our supporters, the Foundation has raised more than $30 million, funding initiatives such as:

    • Patient Assistance Programs: Support for transportation, medication and lodging
    • Health Screenings: Cancer, diabetes and cardiac screenings for early detection
    • Education and Workforce Development: Scholarships and healthcare workforce initiatives
    • Advanced Care: Cutting-edge equipment and resources for better outcomes

    The evening begins at 6 p.m. with cocktails, followed by dinner and entertainment at 7 p.m. Guests will enjoy live music by "Party of 5," sponsored by Optum. Cocktail attire is requested.

    “Our donors are the reason we can provide programs that truly change lives,” said Tracy Naylor, Executive Director of Owensboro Health Foundation. “This event is a celebration of their generosity and the impact they’ve made.”

    Join us in honoring the people who make better health possible.
