Eskenazi Health Foundation welcomed corporate and foundation partners to its third annual Corporate Giving Circle Breakfast, a morning dedicated to celebrating generosity and shared impact across Central Indiana.

Lisa Harris, M.D., CEO of Eskenazi Health, shared a powerful snapshot of how Eskenazi Health is meeting growing community needs amid rising health care costs. She highlighted the health care system’s commitment to clinical care as well as multiple social drivers of health, reminding partners that their support helps ensure high-quality care remains accessible for those who need it most.

The program featured remarks from Ashley Overley, M.D., CEO of Sandra Eskenazi Mental Health Center and vice president of mental health operations for Eskenazi Health. Dr. Overley spoke to the strong connection between mental health, overall well-being, and workplace success, emphasizing the value of supportive and healthy work environments.
