Mallinckrodt Community Giving

Mallinckrodt Community Charitable Giving Program

Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals’ Charitable Giving Program provides funding to organizations for projects or programs that fit our strategic areas of giving:

Health and Wellness

We support programs that increase access to quality, affordable healthcare; directly benefit people suffering from a specific disease for which treatment options are not readily available; and provide training, education, and tools to address specific health needs in the community.

Science Education

We support STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) initiatives in K-12 schools, community colleges, universities and other nonprofit educational organizations, including programs working to create a diverse pipeline of science professionals.

Life Sciences

We support organizations dedicated to innovative research and development projects that stimulate job creation and economic growth within the geographic regions where we operate.
