Mission & Focus Areas
The Foundation’s stated mission is to provide Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services with financial resources and community support so its ministry of love and healing in Christ’s name can flourish and be enhanced. Its 2024 filing says all charitable gifts and donations to Pine Rest flow through the Foundation.
The Foundation’s support includes grants to Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services for behavioral healthcare and counseling programs, funding for the Patient Assistance Fund, endowment distributions, and special projects. The Patient Assistance Fund helps individuals and families with limited resources reduce the cost of treatment at Pine Rest; it is assistance for care recipients, not a grant program for outside organizations. Endowment distributions also support programs including the psychiatry residency, research expansion, and the Mother and Baby Program.
Grantmaking
The Foundation’s 2024 filing says it awards grants to Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services each year according to a specific formula to fund behavioral healthcare and counseling programs. Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services received $1,094,565 in 2021. The grantee describes its mission as expressing the healing ministry of Jesus Christ through behavioral health services provided with professional excellence, Christian integrity, and compassion.
The Foundation’s filings list zero grants for 2023, 2024, and 2025. The Patient Assistance Fund provides financial help to Pine Rest patients and families; a person concerned about the cost of a patient’s care may ask a Pine Rest account manager or outpatient clinic manager about applying for assistance.
