Wegman Family Charitable Foundation Donates $5M to Campaign

The Wegman Family Charitable Foundation (the Foundation) has committed $5 million to support patient care and capital improvements within Rochester Regional Health.

The gift is one of the largest made to Rochester Regional’s $300 million fundraising campaign, Because Care Matters. The Foundation joins the Sands Family Foundation, Constellation Brands, Inc. and the Riedman Foundation as a lead contributor to the Campaign, since its launch in November 2016.

“We need to ensure everyone in the community has access to high quality medical care,” says Danny Wegman, the Foundation’s president and chairman of the board. “Any endeavor that seeks to improve the quality of the region’s healthcare demands our attention and support.”

The Wegman Family Charitable Foundation, headquartered in Rochester, has a history of supporting community programs in the areas of education, health and wellness, and workforce development.
