Community investing

Funding and supporting activities, programs and services that benefit those who live in our service area is a big part of what we do.

To make our community investment budget go as far as possible, we want to support the events, activities and organizations that make better health easier for our patients, family members, students and employees, and all who live in the communities we serve.

Most community investments are proactively planned by Geisinger. However, we’re open to hearing your ideas, too.

Sponsorships

We welcome any opportunity to support the growth of the communities and the people we serve, so be sure to tell us about new initiatives. These are our particular areas of interest.
