CommonSpirit Health Recognized for 10th Consecutive Year as a High-Performing Healthcare Fundraiser by AHP

Chicago, Ill. (December 15, 2025) – For the tenth-consecutive year, CommonSpirit Health has again been ranked among the top high-performing health care fundraisers in North America by the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy (AHP).

Nancy Bussani, Chief Philanthropy Officer and President of CommonSpirit Health Foundation, said, “Achieving this recognition for a full decade is an incredible testament to the unwavering dedication of our philanthropic partners — individuals, foundations, and corporations — who believe in our healing ministry. Their generous support empowers us to provide compassionate care, innovate solutions, and address the critical needs of the diverse communities we serve. This long-standing achievement is a profound reaffirmation of the power of inspired generosity to transform lives.”

This recognition is based on data compiled in AHP’s most recent Report on Giving and celebrates the combined performance of CommonSpirit’s 80 foundations across its multi-state ministry as well as the national work of CommonSpirit Health Foundation.

AHP High Performer recognition CommonSpirit was recognized by AHP as a “High Performer: Overall” and as a “High Performer: Health System.” Published annually for more than 35 years, AHP’s Report on Giving summarizes revenue and expense information contributed by AHP members for each fiscal year.
