Priority Initiatives

Focus Your Passion

It is such an exciting time to focus your passion for improving our community’s health and your philanthropic priorities. In addition to the work that our local hospitals do every day, philanthropy can enhance and in some cases sustain the Adventist Health programs that focus on our mission: Living God’s love by inspiring health, wholeness and hope.

Greatest Need(1)

Empowering Impact Area of Greatest Need Fund

The biggest and most exciting opportunities do not always happen according to schedule. Gifts to our Area of Greatest Need fund provide Adventist Health Castle leaders with the flexibility to allocate resources where and when they are needed most. Gifts to this fund have helped purchase state-of-the-art equipment and technology, improved our physical campus and supported community projects.

When you give to Adventist Health Castle Area of Greatest Need fund, your unrestricted gift is instrumental in helping us provide the high-quality care that our patients have come to expect while allowing us to react quickly to the changing needs of healthcare.

Primary Care

Increasing Access to Whole-Person Care Expanding Primary Care

The most important front-line health care service that promotes prevention, well-being and care for the whole person is excellent, accessible primary care. Adventist Health Castle is focused on expanding access to primary care for the windward side, O‘ahu-wide and the state. The recent Hawaii Physician Workforce Crisis Task Force reported to the legislature that the greatest area of physician shortage is primary care, with 163 new primary care physicians needed statewide.

Our aim is to create a modern, efficient, and much needed workplace to support recruitment and growth. Philanthropic investment in this project will help increase access to integrated primary care and behavioral health services, address a critical shortage of primary care providers and allow Adventist Health Castle to provide enhanced care coordination for underserved individuals.

AH Castle Workforce

Elevating Economic Sustainability and Healthcare Workforce Development

At Adventist Health Castle, we know that the health of our community is best served by patient-provider partnerships facilitated by a culturally competent workforce made up of individuals who honor and celebrate the unique heritage of Hawaii. Part of this program includes expansion of community partnerships with non-profit and government agencies who support training and job readiness for our vulnerable populations.
 
Philanthropic investment in this project will elevate the economic sustainability of our community, offering a comprehensive approach to developing a workforce with professional excellence that is reflective of our beautiful legacy.

Urgently Improving Cancer Care Oncology

Patients on the windward side of O‘ahu have 12% of all cancer in Hawaii, yet there are too few oncologists at Adventist Health Castle to provide the care our neighbors need and deserve here on the windward side. Adventist Health Castle must recruit additional oncologists, expand and upgrade patient care space, and purchase state-of-the-art equipment to support new physicians and their patients.

Your gift will support the transformation of the clinical space to accommodate new providers, support oncology-related surgery and upgrade imaging equipment.
