Each employee has a unique story to tell about why they devote their time, talent and passion each day to Children’s Health℠. And with over 10,000 of us contributing our time and talents each day, coming together to provide philanthropic support can spark a movement of incredible impact.
As the fundraising arm for Children’s Health, one of the largest and most prestigious nonprofit pediatric health systems in North Texas, the Children's Medical Center Foundation provides philanthropic support through partnerships with individual donors, organizations, and corporations.
These funds support Children's Health with the enhancement of care, discovery of cures, and building a healthier community across all Children's Health campuses to fulfill the mission to make life better for children. All contributions to Children's Medical Center Foundation directly impact patients and their families, ensuring the best experience, best care, and ultimately a fighting chance to get back to being a kid again.
Employees can provide ongoing support through payroll deduction gifts. This is an easy way to make a pre-tax contribution that adds up over time and provides the system with regular source of funding.
Employees can also make one-time or monthly gifts online or include Children’s Health in their will. No matter how you give to Children’s Health, you are making a difference in the lives of North Texas children and beyond.
Our Current Fundraising Priorities:
-
Children's Health's Greatest Need
General, undesignated philanthropic resources provide the flexibility and means for Children’s Health to adapt, explore, sustain, and enhance the many ways we fulfill our mission to make life better for children. They are crucial to the day-to-day lives of our patients, families, staff, clinicians and the pediatric community of North Texas, and they enable our institution to invest in new initiatives and care solutions.
-
New Dallas Pediatric Campus
This new Dallas campus, which will replace the existing Children’s Medical Center Dallas, will be a destination for leading-edge patient care and emerging treatments and will provide the infrastructure needed to transform health care for the most complex pediatric patients. It will also serve as a hub for innovations, academic research and the development of lifesaving technologies to provide exemplary care for children for decades to come. Philanthropic support is crucial to ensure Children's Medical Center Dallas is ready to meet the unique and wide-ranging needs of our community’s pediatric population for decades to come.
-
Expansion to Children’s Medical Center Plano
Major expansion of the Plano hospital will significantly increase capacity by adding more inpatient beds, physicians, services and support for the rapidly growing North Texas pediatric population, allowing us to serve our community’s medical needs closer to where they live, work and play. Philanthropic support is crucial to ensure Children's Medical Center Plano is ready to meet the unique and wide-ranging needs of our community’s pediatric population for decades to come.
