Honoring Philanthropy

Gratitude built Mayo Clinic, which was established through the generous philanthropy of William J. Mayo, M.D., and Charles H. Mayo, M.D., and their wives, Hattie and Edith. Today we proudly honor the many grateful patients and friends of Mayo Clinic who, like our founders, recognize the transformative power their gift holds.
