Mission & Focus Areas
The IRS filing’s mission/purpose field refers readers to Schedule O but does not state the mission itself. In its 2024 community benefits report, NHC says its Community Benefits staff are committed to working collaboratively with communities to address leading health issues and create a healthy future. The report also describes BILH’s commitment to expanding access to care.
Beverly and Addison Gilbert Hospitals’ Community Benefits grants are intended to support evidence-based or evidence-informed programs addressing equitable access to care, social determinants of health, mental health and substance abuse, or complex and chronic conditions. The website identifies priority cohorts as youth, older adults, low-resource populations, LGBTQIA+ people, and racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse populations. Eligible organization types described on the grants page include local service organizations, schools, boards of health, coalitions, and community groups serving the hospitals’ market area.
Examples among the 2025 grantees illustrate the range of supported organizations. North Shore Community Health describes its mission as building healthy communities by providing exceptional care to all. The Open Door says it works to alleviate hunger in the community, while Action Inc. describes its mission as creating opportunities for a thriving Cape Ann. Pathways for Children says it supports children and families affected by economic and social inequity. These are the grantees’ stated missions, not NHC’s.
