Join the Society of 1961

Donors who invest $3,000 or more a year become members of the Society of 1961, named in honor of WakeMed’s founding year. Society members have made health and well-being a top philanthropic priority. The Foundation benefits from their trust, vision and generosity. Members receive an invitation to our annual Appreciation Gala and enjoy other opportunities to get an up-close view of the transformative power of health care — by interacting with the best minds and the biggest hearts across the WakeMed Health and Hospital system.
