What We Do

The Paso del Norte Health Foundation seeks to improve the region’s health in three priority areas:

How We Work

The Health Foundation leads, leverages, and invests in regional initiatives, programs, and policies. We build relationships with regional nonprofits to share our expertise on program development and marketing, award grants to advance health initiatives, and offer leadership development to equip nonprofit leaders with the skills and knowledge needed to transform their critical work.

Our Impact

Since 1996, the Paso del Norte Health Foundation has granted more than $266 million to over 300 organizations across the Borderplex region.

But our impact is best understood when you look at the value each awarded grant and program officer adds to the community. From offering indispensable insight and support to our grantees to investing in initiatives that give our community ways to build healthier habits to equipping strong health leaders with greater resources and knowledge, our impact is creating a healthier, stronger Paso del Norte region.
