Muhlenberg Foundation

Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center has changed dramatically over the past 130 years, though it continues to grow the very same way it began — with heart.

Plainfield’s first and only hospital emerged from the efforts of seven volunteers who were deeply touched by a local train accident in 1876. After a physician was forced to perform surgery by candlelight at a nearby freight house, these individuals set out to build a community hospital by raising funds from their neighbors, friends and other philanthropists who cared about the health and well-being of area families.

That genuine benevolence remains at the heart of the Muhlenberg Foundation today, driving its sole mission of supporting Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center through charitable giving.
