Humboldt Health Foundation (HHF)

The mission of HHF (formerly ULHF), a supporting organization of Humboldt Area Foundation, is to improve the health and well-being of the residents and communities of Humboldt County. The original Union Labor Hospital, later known as General Hospital, was established in Eureka in 1906 by newly unionized timber and mill workers as a charitable nonprofit organization. After 90 years of service in the field, Union Labor Hospital Association established the foundation in 1997 with proceeds from the sale of the hospital. The fund balance reflects the original endowment and contributions made to the foundation by community members. (1997)
