Care for all in Austin
Your support of Ascension Seton helps us serve those most in need while also offering the best care to all our patients.
Together we’re caring for our rapidly growing community
The Ascension Seton Foundation works with our philanthropic community to support Ascension Seton’s Central Austin adult facilities, including Ascension Seton Medical Center Austin, Dell Seton Medical Center at The University of Texas, as well as the Nurse Scholarship Endowment.
In rapidly-growing Central Texas, we are tasked to serve many more people, but we do so in a thriving community that values talent and innovative breakthroughs. In Austin we expect the best and healthcare is no exception—we provide the best care to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay.
Our Fundraising Priorities
At Ascension Seton Medical Center we are expanding our Mother Baby services, Heart care services, Breast Care Center, and establishing an Excellence Fund. And at Dell Seton Medical Center at the University of Texas at Austin we are establishing an Abdominal Transplant program, an Excellence Fund, expanding our Neurosciences services, and investing in cutting-edge Research, Technology and Innovation.
At Dell Seton Medical Center at the University of Texas, our community’s rapid growth demands that we accelerate our investment in the technologies, facilities and medical talent that will keep us at the leading edge of exceptional care.
