What is "AMG"?
AMG stands for the Associate Month of Giving. This is the Health First Foundation's annual associate giving campaign that takes place every February. Associates are given the opportunity to support the work we do and our colleagues at Health First, United Way programs or give their time by volunteering in our community.
Is AMG just one month long?
The campaign might be only one month, but the goodness that comes from it is ongoing! Gifts to the Associate Month of Giving are used year-round and you can always update or adjust your giving at any time of year, here.
What payment methods are accepted?
Our online giving portal is the easiest way to give via credit card, payroll deduction, E-check or PayPal. You can make a one-time gift, or a monthly reoccuring gift.
You may also make a gift by paper check or cash and send via interoffice mail (located on the 3rd floor of the Pro-Health and Fitness building in Melbourne) or mail to our location below:
Health First Foundation

Where does my money go?
100% of gifts made by associates are utilized as requested and are not used to cover any operating or fundraising expenses for the Foundation. Associate giving truly gives back to the goodness that we do here at Health First.
Can I direct my funds to a specific area?
Of course! Associates can choose to either make an unrestricted gift or designate their contributions to a particular service area from the areas below:
- Area of greatest need
- Aging Services
- Associate Relief Fund
- Cancer Institute
- Compassionate Care Fund
- Emergency Department/Trauma
- Heart & Vascular
- Hospice
- Nursing Scholarships
- Women & Children
How can I be entered into the weekly prize drawings?
A donation to the Health First Foundation is necessary to be included in the prize drawings. Once you make a gift, you will be included in that week's drawing, and all moving foward.
If you already give by payroll deduction each pay period, you don't have to do anything! You'll be automatically entered into all drawings during the Associate Month of Giving.
