Our 40th

For 40 years, Presbyterian Health Foundation has been dedicated to fueling discovery and driving innovation in medical research. Founded in 1985, PHF was created with a bold vision to invest in science that transforms health and improves lives. What began as a commitment to support researchers and institutions in Oklahoma has grown into four decades of impact, advancing knowledge, strengthening healthcare, and inspiring the breakthroughs of tomorrow.
Our mission has always been clear: to provide the resources and opportunities that allow brilliant scientists and medical innovators to push boundaries. From supporting early-stage ideas to funding world-class facilities, PHF stands at the intersection of curiosity and possibility. We believe that bold research leads to better treatments, stronger communities, and a healthier future for all.
As we celebrate our 40th anniversary, we look back with gratitude on the progress made and forward with excitement to the discoveries yet to come. Together with our partners, we remain committed to advancing health, inspiring innovation and helping to shape the future of medicine.
