Bringing life-saving care to those in need
Many people lack access to healthcare screenings and treatments due to disparities in underserved urban and rural regions around the county. We have partnered with healthcare providers and local communities to provide uninsured people with breast, liver, and lung cancer screenings. This demonstrates our overall commitment to Healthcare Access.
Advancing STEM education
Through Scholars in STEM, we extend outreach to diverse high school students. Students gain hands-on experience, see equipment demonstrations from our employees, and gain insight about careers and opportunities in STEM.
Promoting Health Equity for All
Since 2018, the Siemens Foundation has invested over $15.5 million, including funding and in-kind donations from Siemens Healthineers. Funds go toward workforce training in medical fields and access to healthcare.
Some programs that the Foundation supports:
- The National Alliance for Hispanic Health provides health and human services to over 1 million people per year. Activities include ¡Vive tu vida! Get Up! Get Moving!®, a series promoting wellness and healthy lifestyles in Hispanic communities.
- Washington Association for Community Health expands healthcare access through the In-REACH training program. This program increases apprenticeships for medical and dental assistants, creating a more diverse workforce and economic opportunities.
- Choose Healthy Life is the leading national faith-based initiative addressing health disparities on Black Americans. They increase access to health screenings, vaccinations, and resources through health navigators.
Additionally, Siemens Healthineers supports scientific research and education through organizations including the American Heart Association and American Cancer Society.
