Doylestown Health's One Vision Campaign Reaches $80M In Donations
The campaign is now $20M from their goal of $100M. Funds will be used to improve the hospital's quality of care and building projects.
DOYLESTOWN, PA — Doylestown Health has raised $80,000,000 in donations and pledges for their 'One Vision Campaign', which focuses on initiatives to improve the hospital's quality of care and various developments and upgrades to the hospital as a whole.
The campaign, launched in 2016, started with a goal of reaching $75,000,000, which was increased to $100,000,000 in January after the campaign reached its goal ahead of schedule due to generous donations.
One of those building projects is for the Children's Village, which was destroyed in a 2020 tornado and is currently being rebuilt. This daycare center has been working out of a temporary location on Ferry Road while the new location is being planned, with groundbreaking of the new building scheduled for Dec. 4.

Construction on an expansion of the Women's Diagnostic Center is also underway. The expansion will allow more space for patients on the ground floor. A majority of the funds for this project came from a single donation from the co-chairs of the One Vision Campaign, along with their family. The Center will reopen as the Clark Center for Breast Imaging in early 2022.
Much of the funding and construction plans are scheduled to be finished by 2023, the hospital's centennial year. Some projects will go on for the remainder of that year.
