Renown’s Charitable Mission

Investing in Those Who Share Our Vision for a Stronger Nevada

As Reno’s only locally owned and governed not-for-profit healthcare network, we are committed to this community and continually improving the care and resources we provide. This means our earnings stay here and are reinvested to bring new facilities, services and lifesaving technologies to our region. This also means the Renown team is dedicated to supporting other local nonprofit agencies who share our vision.

Renown’s contributions during fiscal year 2017 totaled nearly $118 Million, including funding for research, community initiatives and non-reimbursed healthcare services.

In 2017, Renown helped fund:

Behavioral health resources so fewer patients come to Emergency Rooms in crisis. More than 380 free behavioral health screenings were completed in the community.

Childhood immunizations with Immunize Nevada. Over 30,000 lives were touched and 1,266 vaccines given to uninsured children at 27 events.

Vaccinations and case management provided by Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada. 295 vaccines were given to underserved seniors and 311 in-home assessments were done for safety, well-being and health and wellness education.
