Thank you to everyone who was able to join us at the third annual Hamot Strong on May 5, 2018! We are proud to announce that together we raised over $131,000 to support continuing education at UPMC Hamot!

Upperclassmen in the Medical Assistant program at Erie High School spent the day with UPMC Hamot employees earlier this month thanks to a gift from the Next Generation Fund at Hamot Health Foundation.

Hamot Health Foundation was proud to grant $6,000 from the Next Generation Fund to help the future leaders at Youth Leadership Institute of Erie continue chasing their dreams.

Hamot Health Foundation funds comfortable clothing for patients in the Emergency Department who need new garments upon discharge — including victims of sexual assault. Often, these patients have to surrender their clothing as evidence, or their clothes need to be replaced because they are torn and dirty.

​In December 2015, 24-year-old Ali Fuhrman tragically lost her life in a car accident that also critically injured her father, Pat. Pat works at National Fuel, and last year he approached his employer to ask if the company would be willing to sponsor the cost of Advanced Trauma Care for Nurses (ATCN) training, a nationally recognized program, in honor of his daughter.
