Organization

The E.C.H.O. Foundation was created in 1996 to advance the philanthropic and charitable contributions for improving healthcare services and programs at Tomball Regional Medical Center (TRMC).

Funds raised by the Foundation are used to further the hospital's mission as a non-profit organization. The Board meets quarterly to organize and oversee the Foundation's activities. Since the Foundation was established, it has raised funds for various projects throughout the Medical Center. The E.C.H.O. Foundation and Tomball Regional Medical Center are dedicated to serving the healthcare needs of Northwest Houston.

TRMC is a self-supporting, non-profit regional medical center serving Northwest Houston, Tomball, Waller, Cypress, Magnolia, Spring, and Montgomery areas. The Medical Center offers comprehensive heart surgery, diagnostic testing, magnetic resonance imaging, intensive cardiac care, family centered birthing suites, emergency room services, outpatient surgery, sports medicine and much more.

The E.C.H.O. Foundation gives at least 90% of the net proceeds received in contributions to TRMC. Since TRMC receives no funding through tax support, private donations help to offset expenses and the rising cost of technology and equipment. The E.C.H.O. Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization and receives donations and contributions to support the Medical Center.
