A heartfelt thank you to the Scottsdale giving circle of 100+ Women Who Care Valley of the Sun for selecting Valleywise Health Foundation as their Q2 charity recipient and for their generous gift of more than $12,500!

Their support will help provide LifeBubble Umbilical Line Securement Systems in the Valleywise Health NICU, improving safety and comfort for premature and critically ill newborns who rely on lifesaving umbilical lines. This innovative system also helps make skin-to-skin bonding safer and easier for families during a critical time in their baby's journey.

We are grateful for this incredible group of women and their commitment to giving our tiniest and most vulnerable patients the best possible start in life.

💙 May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💙

For more than 50 years, Valleywise Health has been a leader in behavioral health care in Arizona, helping adolescents, adults, and families navigate some of life’s most difficult moments with dignity, support, and hope.

From early intervention programs like the First Episode Center to integrated behavioral health services and community-based care, these programs are helping patients move forward and rebuild their lives.

With support from donors and community partners, Valleywise Health Foundation helps provide access to vital behavioral health care and resources for those who need it most.

🎒 A backpack may seem simple, but for a child heading back to school, it can mean confidence, opportunity, and a stronger start to the year.

This year, our goal is to provide 3,300 fully stocked backpacks to students across Maricopa County through Valleywise Health Family Resource Centers.

💙 Just $30 provides one backpack filled with supplies.

Today, we remember and honor all those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation and our freedom. This day is also a powerful reminder of the privilege we have at Valleywise Health to provide care for all who enter our doors, including those who have served—our nation’s Veterans and Service Members.

Please join us in paying tribute to those who gave so much for all of us.

Lorna Tan has always believed in supporting causes that make a positive impact. As Clinical Resource Leader in the Operating Room at Valleywise Health, she sees every day how important it is to care for our community’s most vulnerable patients and ensure no one falls through the gaps.

After working at Valleywise Health 20 years ago and returning three years ago, Lorna has been inspired by how much the organization has grown - from its commitment to patient safety to the incredible care happening across the system every day. Through the Heart of Valleywise Health, she gives back to help strengthen that mission and support the underserved patients who rely on Valleywise. 💙

“I believe in giving back to something bigger than myself. Valleywise cares for so many vulnerable patients, and supporting the Foundation is one way I can help make sure that care continues for everyone who needs it.”

Thank you to all the employees and providers who are the Heart of Valleywise Health and help make compassionate care possible every day.

Thank you to the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community for their generous support of Labor & Delivery at Valleywise Health. 💙

This funding will help provide equipment, supplies and staff training that enhance comfort, safety, and support for moms, babies, and families during some of life’s most important moments. From birthing tubs and bassinets to wireless fetal monitors and breast pumps, these resources will make a meaningful difference for the patients we serve every day.

We’re grateful for SRPMIC’s partnership and commitment to strengthening care for our community.

Happy Hospital Week to the incredible team members who make exceptional care possible every day at Valleywise Health!

Thank you for your dedication to our patients, families, and community. We’re so grateful to celebrate you this week and always 💙
