The IPA Board of Directors formed The MVMA Foundation in November 2003 as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) private foundation to benefit charitable organizations that engage in the promotion of health either by delivering health care services or by providing public education within the MVMA geographic community. The organization’s specific and primary purpose is to promote the health of individuals living within Schenectady, Saratoga, Fulton, Montgomery, Warren, Washington, Albany, Rensselaer and Schoharie counties. 

The MVMA Foundation will make contributions to tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organizations that are not private foundations. Over the past several years, contributions have focused on RN Nursing Programs in our service area.  An application form and required information must be submitted for consideration by the Board of Trustees.
