At The Cooper Foundation, we believe in the extraordinary—and in the power of philanthropy to make it possible.
As the philanthropic arm of Cooper University Health Care, The Cooper Foundation plays a vital role in supporting the programs, services, and innovations that distinguish Cooper as South Jersey’s leading academic health system.
Every year, more than 14,000 team members deliver world-class care to more than 2.4 million patients across three hospitals and more than 130 outpatient locations extending from the Delaware River to the Jersey shore. And with your support, we are growing stronger than ever.
In recent years, we’ve marked two transformative milestones: the launch of Cooper’s historic $3 billion Camden campus expansion and the integration of Cape Regional Health System. These bold investments represent our commitment to building a stronger, more accessible health care system for South Jersey.
In 2023 we also opened our new multi-specialty campus in Moorestown. This milestone solidified Cooper’s presence in the region, making advanced, compassionate care available to even more residents throughout South Jersey.
No matter how far we grow, our commitment to Camden remains steadfast. For more than 130 years, Cooper has called Camden and South Jersey home. Many of the city’s residents are not only our patients, but also part of the Cooper team delivering safe, high-quality care every day.
These developments go far beyond bricks and mortar. They expand our reach, strengthen our system, and enhance our ability to deliver cutting-edge care, attract top talent, and remain a regional leader in health care for generations to come.
Philanthropy is what fuels this momentum.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, The Cooper Foundation raises millions each year to support patient care, capital improvements, medical education, and research. These gifts help Cooper stay at the forefront of medicine—offering the latest treatments, pioneering new therapies, and providing exceptional care where it’s needed most.
Whether supporting a new hospital tower, helping to launch life-saving treatments, or honoring a loved one through legacy giving, our community of supporters plays an essential role in shaping the future of health care at Cooper.
On behalf of our Board of Trustees and the entire Foundation team, thank you for believing in our mission and investing in Cooper’s next chapter.
Sincerely,
Philip A. Norcross
Chairman
