Morton Plant Mease Health Care Foundation

Welcome to the Morton Plant Mease Health Care Foundation, a cornerstone of philanthropic support for the not-for-profit hospitals of Morton Plant Mease. Located at 1200 Druid Road South, Belleair, Florida, our foundation has been a beacon of community generosity for over 45 years. We proudly support Morton Plant Hospital in Clearwater, Mease Dunedin, Mease Countryside in Safety Harbor, and Morton Plant North Bay in New Port Richey, fostering a unique spirit of giving that emphasizes the vital connection between our hospitals and the communities they serve.

In 2023, thanks to the generous contributions from our community, the Foundation granted nearly $10 million to our hospitals, enhancing healthcare services and facilities. Our annual Philanthropy Report showcases these accomplishments, along with the invaluable support of our donors and the impactful grants awarded to the hospitals.

Our foundation thrives on the active participation of community groups like the Skip Cline Society, named in honor of Harry Sykes “Skip” Cline Jr. Founded in 2004, this vibrant group of young professionals engages in networking, social events, and fundraisers, passionately supporting pediatric programs and services at our hospitals. Over the past decade, they have contributed over $545,000, demonstrating their commitment to the well-being of our youngest patients.

Women in Philanthropy is another influential group within our foundation, inspiring and empowering women to reach their philanthropic potential. With two chapters, the Women in Philanthropy Pinellas chapter and the Morton Plant North Bay Hospital chapter, members gather annually to assess hospital needs and strategically distribute their gifts through grants. Their collective efforts significantly improve the quality of healthcare in our community.

Join us in our mission to support the hospitals of Morton Plant Mease. Together, we can continue to make a difference in the lives of those who rely on our care. Explore opportunities to contribute, engage, and be part of a legacy of giving that strengthens our community's health and future.
