Your gift to NSMC makes an enormous difference in the lives of our patients. Donations to NSMC support the exciting expansion of our services at the MassGeneral/North Shore Center for Outpatient Care, currently under construction in Danvers. They also support renovations to the NSMC Salem Hospital campus. In years past donations have supported the addition of our state-of-the-art Cardiac Surgery Unit, the development of two new Emergency Departments, and the installation of cutting-edge technology for the NSMC Cancer Center. By giving to NSMC you also have the opportunity to join other dedicated members of the community in supporting this vital health resource.


Salem Hospital opened its doors in 1874 and is the oldest component of what is now North Shore Medical Center. We created the 1874 Society to recognize philanthropic leaders who give annually to NSMC.  It also honors our donors, whose deep personal commitment to providing the finest medical care is a fundamental part of our success.
