The Millennium Society
The Millennium Society, established in 2004, is a group of women, representing all segments of the community, who support Huntsville Hospital Foundation with charitable gifts. The mission of the Millennium Society is to create solutions and to make a difference in the lives of patients right here in our community: our neighbors, co-workers, children and grandchildren…and those we don’t even know. In doing so, we continue the legacy that began in 1895 when the Ladies of the United Charities established the Huntsville Infirmary, a hospital that has grown to be one of the largest in the country, and one that consistently raises the standard of care it provides for patients across north Alabama.
Membership is open to all women interested in supporting the advancement of healthcare in our community. The only membership “requirements” are the $1,000 annual contribution and a willingness to designate the gift to benefit the hospital department selected for funding support that year.
Since 1895, volunteerism, philanthropy and strong community support have been the cornerstones of our hospital. Women continue to play an integral role in Huntsville Hospital’s success, and we hope to continue that wonderful tradition as we join together and extend that wonderful legacy for the good of our community!
