About the Dakota Hospital Foundation
Since its beginning in 1930, Dakota Hospital Foundation has fulfilled a mission of improving the health of the individuals and communities in our area. The health care pioneers who established Dakota Hospital Foundation (DHF) also nurtured a tradition of community health service leadership represented by today’s Foundation members.
Over the last 90+ years, Vermillion’s hospital has grown into a comprehensive community medical center providing care for the whole family. Together with Sanford Vermillion Medical Center, DHF continues to be dedicated to community health and wellness.
