Grantee History

The Northern New Mexico Health Grants Group, is a joint initiative of Con Alma Health Foundation and the Los Alamos Medical Center Auxiliary.

In May 2002, the Los Alamos Medical Center was sold by Banner Health Systems, a non-profit corporation, to Province HealthCare, a for-profit corporation. Some proceeds from the sale of Los Alamos Medical Center were preserved to serve the unmet healthcare needs of the people of Los Alamos, Rio Arriba and northern Santa Fe counties.

*Please note that Northern Santa Fe County is defined as towns and pueblos north of the city of Santa Fe and does not include the city of Santa Fe.

Con Alma Health Foundation and the Hospital Auxiliary for Los Alamos Medical Center, working as the Northern New Mexico Health Grants Group, distribute the investment income from those proceeds for grants that target the populations traditionally served by Los Alamos Medical Center.
