Our Communities

Region Overview

Kaiser Permanente’s commitment to improving the health of the diverse communities we serve is part of our heritage going back 65 years. Through research, community health initiatives, grant programs, employee giving, and volunteerism, we continue to make real and lasting change.

Some examples, highlighted in our Northwest Community Annual Report:

  • Since our Community Fund was established at the Northwest Health Foundation in 2004, we have awarded 104 grants worth almost $15 million.
  • Our Center for Health Research runs hundreds of studies in more than 20 areas, including health disparities, genetics, and obesity.
  • In 2009, employee participation in our annual Community Giving Campaign increased 114 percent over the previous year, raising more than $890,000 to be distributed in the community.
  • Our total commitment to the community last year was more than $100 million.
