Houchens Insurance donates $1M to St. E. to support community wellbeing, strategic healthcare


Houchens Insurance Group has donated $1 million to St. Elizabeth Healthcare to help promote community well being and vital healthcare initiatives. While Houchens Insurance Group has consistently supported the St. Elizabeth Foundation throughout the years, this $1 million donation marks the company’s first donation of such magnitude. It will be split equally between the Edgewood Cancer Center and the Florence Wormald Heart & Vascular Institute (HVI), amplifying the impact across two crucial areas of healthcare.
