Mission:** To improve the health of area residents. Vision:** Transforming healthcare to support healthier living. Values:** Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Excellence. David MatthewsAround the turn of the 20th century, David A. Mathews was a prominent local farmer and businessman in the Morris community.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 97% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
