After being a patient for several years of an excellent but underserved specialty at Overlook Hospital my wife and I approached the Foundation about assisting Overlook to improve the associated facilities and equipment. The response was immediate and appreciated, notwithstanding the modest level of contribution involved. The Foundation kept us informed throughout a 4 year development process which entailed expanding the specialty's staff and gaining new quarters within the hospital complex. The outcome reflects a great partnership achieved by the Foundation, donors and the hospital.
The Overlook Foundation is outstanding run by the smartest , most congenial wonderful people. I have lived in Summit for nearly 50 yrs. I had my three sons there and had many visits to the hospital were had by all the family. I love this Hospital community and would do anything for them. Being a member of this terrific Board gives me such pride that I can give back to Overlook Community. Hats off to Clelia Biamonti and her Board staff. They work
Tiresly throughout the year with events and lectures. All for benefit of Overlook!!!

Overlook Foundation is a wonderful, caring non-profit who supports many programs that make Overlook Medical Center the great hospital it is today. I have been living in Summit for over 25 years and all my doctors are at Overlook Medical Center. It gives me great comfort knowing the Overlook Foundation team is always working hard to raise the funds where they are most needed. Supporting the foundation is a no brainer with their transparency on where the money goes and what it supports.
Overlook is a blend of a hospital with a community feel and commitment while building world class capabilities. The strategy is sound and the people really care. Fabulous story
I support the Overlook Foundation both as a donor and a former chair of the Foundation Board. The Foundation is dedicated to responding to the needs of Overlook no matter how big or small. It is a highly strategic focused team that is knowledgeable about the Hospital. Currently the Foundation is involved in a very successful Capital Campaign to transform over 80% of the hospital. Without hesitation I can say that the Foundation truly helps to touch lives, change lives and save lives. Bev Luehs
It is my privilege to be able to support Overlook Medical Center. I have never seen such a dedicated staff. Everyone came together under the worst of circumstances during COVID. These professionals sacrificed so much and placed care of the patient above all else. Overlook strives to be cutting edge in every aspect of patient care and technology. They are ready for anything, as evidenced by their stellar response to the COVID epidemic. I have proudly supported this organization for many years and I hope you will too!
Overlook Foundation has been instrumental in bringing innovative services and equipment to Overlook Medical Center for decades. Tens of thousands of patients benefit from their efforts every year and I am really grateful for the work they do.
Overlook foundation works in the communities we live in and more importantly helped patients and their communities navigate through COVID with the overlook hospital experiencing some of the highest COVID patients in the region. All the people are accessible and easy to work with and have a high degree of empathy and care. Truly front line heroes.
The Overlook Foundation supports my "go to" hospital, Overlook Medical Center, which provides exceptional services to our patients and their families. Throughout the years, my family has been treated at Overlook Medical Center for various reasons. The caring and competent staff has led to our return visits. As donors we can give back to this wonderful hospital.
I am a former patient at Overlook Medical Center and was very impressed with the quality of care and the compassion exhibited by all of the staff. Because of this positive experience, I have been a big supporter of the foundation, donating both my time and my financial support. It is run by very professional and caring individuals who have done a phenomenal job raising money and awareness for the medical center. The foundation has helped this medical center develop innovative and cutting-edge technology and attract amazing new medical personnel, resulting in many high rankings by independent reviewers of best hospitals in the U.S. and the world.
We have consistently donated to Overlook for at least 10 years and feel honored to have such a respectable organization right in our home community. I love knowing that my donation stays local, improving the lives and health of my friends and neighbors. The Foundation does an excellent job of communicating how my donation is used, and I enjoy hearing about new developments, programs, facilities and technology. Keep up the good work!
My annual discretionary giving goes primarily to Overlook Foundation, along with the $10,000/year commitment I made 2 years ago. This is because the support of the Foundation to renovate and improve the hospital is invaluable. When COVID struck, given that Overlook is in Northern NJ, the hospital was hit hard and early by the pandemic. By helping to financially support ideas and innovations to quickly adjust how to take care of sick and dying patients, what the Foundation did was nothing short of miraculous and inspirational. Then they partnered with the medical staff over the holidays to stand up a food bank for employees who were struggling, making sure the care givers were cared for also. Overlook is an amazing hospital because of the work of the Overlook Foundation.
