Generations Society

For nearly two centuries, MetroHealth has been a constant source of hope and healing for our community – caring for every person, regardless of circumstance. That enduring mission has been made possible not only by caregivers and clinicians, but by supporters who planned ahead to ensure MetroHealth’s work would continue long into the future.

Those individuals are honored through the Generations Society, a special community of donors who have included The MetroHealth Foundation in their estate or financial plans. A legacy gift is a promise that compassionate care, medical innovation, education and access will remain available for generations to come.
