The Horizon Foundation is the largest independent health philanthropy in Maryland. We envision a Howard County free from systemic inequities, where all people can live abundant and healthy lives.

We work side-by-side with community to build power, advocate for policy change and dismantle structural racism to achieve better health for everyone in Howard County and greater Maryland.

Though our strategic priority areas and tactics have evolved over the years, our focus has always been to improve public health in our community, especially for those who face the most significant barriers to achieving good health. Since our founding in 1998, we have invested $78 million in public health, funding over 400 community groups and working with a number of partners on issues such as mental health, chronic disease prevention, health care access, healthy aging and more.

Our latest strategic plan demonstrates the Foundation’s bold commitment to lead as an anti-racist, trust-centered philanthropy, and to partner with community to drive impact in areas of greatest need. Our current focus areas are: demand an equitable health care system, increase affordability and build wealth and dismantle structural racism through community building.
