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.
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 or the Associate Month of Giving campaign. 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 one particular service area from the areas below:
- Area of greatest need
- Aging Services
- Associate Relief Fund
- Cancer Institute
- Compassionate Care Fund
- Education
- Emergency Department & Trauma
- Heart & Vascular
- Hospice of Health First
- Women & Children

You are also invited to make an additional gift to United Way of Brevard. Your gift to United Way may be
designated to one of their funding areas. In the spirit of transparency, United Way does use a portion of
your gift to support the administration of awards to community organizations. For more information, visit
UWBrevard.org.
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 forward.
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.
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 recurring gift on each paycheck.
Gifts of check, cash, or money order may be sent via interoffice mail (located at the Corporate office on US1) or mailed to our location below:
