Memorial and Tribute Giving
Some of the most meaningful gifts Children's Health receives are those given in honor or memory of a loved one. We call these donations "tributes" and we're incredibly thankful for them, as well as the stories that accompany the gift.
A personalized donation page is a meaningful way to pay tribute to a loved one and can help create a place for your community to give back to Children's Health in memory of a loved one who has passed.
We offer two options for families who want to create a memorial page:
We can create the page for you: If you prefer, you can complete this short online form, and we’ll take care of setting up the donation page. Once it’s ready, we will send you the login details and instructions for updating your password. From there, you’ll be able to personalize the page and view donations made in your loved one’s honor.
You can create the page yourself: To get started, visit our tribute fundraising page. You will click “Start Your Fundraiser” and then follow the steps. When you get to the step “create your page,” be sure to select, “I’m fundraising to honor someone else.” This makes setting a fundraising goal optional and allows you to dedicate the page to their memory.
