    About the Organization
The Gogebic Range Health Foundation was formed in 1998 under the
then-community hospital, Grand View Health. The foundation served
as a supporting organization up until 2015, when the hospital
was purchased by Aspirus Inc.
  The board members’ forethought, regional perspective, and
understanding of collaborative efforts to create change led them to
convert the foundation to an independent public charity
501(c)(3) organization with a focus on community health in
2015-16. Since then, the Gogebic Range Health Foundation has
given grants totaling nearly $1 million to area non-profit
organizations, including being a major local funding source
for the expansion of the Iron Belle Trail.
  Based in Ironwood, in Michigan’s western Upper Peninsula,
the Gogebic Range Health Foundation now serves to advance community
health throughout the Gogebic Range, which includes Gogebic
County, Michigan, as well as Iron County, Wisconsin, and to
establish the Gogebic Range as a fun and healthy place to
live. See more about current efforts at  https://gogebicrangehf.org/
    The Gogebic Range
Michigan’s western Upper Peninsula, along with northeastern
Wisconsin, is the outdoor lover’s paradise. Activities abound in
all seasons across the Gogebic Range. See these resources for
