About the Hanger Foundation
Our Mission
The mission of the Hanger Foundation is to advance our communities by supporting 501(c)(3) organizations that help people with physical challenges live life as fully as possible.
Our Goals
- To positively impact the lives of those in need
- To invest in the communities in which we live and work
- To engage our employees in charitable efforts
Our Impact
Hanger’s heritage of charitable giving dates back to the company’s founding in 1861. For many years, Hanger clinicians and employees consistently and generously donated millions of dollars in free care and financial contributions to a variety of causes, including hardship cases in their own communities. In 2009, Hanger formalized and increased its philanthropic work by establishing a non-profit organization, the Hanger Foundation.
Since its inception, the Hanger Foundation has given $4 million in grants to 96 non-profit organizations sharing our mission to empower people with physical challenges to live life as fully as possible.
