Community Annual report (PDF)

Since opening the Scottsdale campus in 1987 and the Phoenix campus in 1998, Mayo Clinic has grown to become a vital part of Arizona and the Southwest.

Mayo Clinic is proud of its many connections to the community, including training local physicians to provide better care for their patients, partnering with community organizations to make health care more accessible, and supporting staff members who give selflessly of their time to serve those in need.

Highlights

Mayo Clinic staff members in Arizona have donated hundreds of pounds of food to the Joshua Tree Food Shelter, the Ronald McDonald House and the Mesa Men's Shelter.

Mayo Clinic also supports food banks and meal programs for the underserved through the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a not-for-profit organization that provides meals to the homeless and medical and dental care to the working poor of Maricopa County.

Through the Salvation Army's "Adopt-a-Family" program, Mayo Clinic employees give gifts to families who otherwise may not have Christmas presents.

Mayo Clinic spearheaded a collaborative effort at the East Valley Men's Center (which serves homeless men) to provide knee-to-foot wellness exams, as well as distribute more than 100 pairs of free boots and socks to the center's temporary residents.
