Children's Hospital Foundation Support
ANNUAL FUNDING FOR CHP: CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF PITTSBURGH FOUNDATION (FOUNDATION) IS THE SOLE FUNDRAISING ARM OF UPMC CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF PITTSBURGH. THROUGH TARGETED CAMPAIGNS, SPECIAL EVENTS, AND GRANTS, THE FOUNDATION RAISES MONEY TO SUPPORT THE HOSPITAL'S MISSION OF EXCELLENCE IN PATIENT CARE, TEACHING, AND RESEARCH. CHILDREN'S HAS BEEN A CHARITABLE INSTITUTION SINCE ITS INCEPTION AND REMAINS A NON-PROFIT ENTITY. TO ENSURE THE CONTINUATION OF ITS CHARITABLE MISSION, IN JULY 2000, THE FOUNDATION WAS ESTABLISHED AS A SUBSIDIARY OF CHILDREN'S. IT THEN BECAME AN INDEPENDENT ORGANIZATION WHEN THE HOSPITAL MERGED WITH UPMC IN OCTOBER 2001. THROUGH THE FOUNDATION, GENEROUS DONATIONS LARGE AND SMALL FROM INDIVIDUALS, CORPORATIONS, FOUNDATIONS, AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS HAVE A DIRECT AND IMMEDIATE IMPACT ON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S ABILITY TO TRANSFORM YOUNG LIVES THROUGH UNPARALLELED CARE AND DEEP COMPASSION. ROOTED IN PHILANTHROPY, CHILDREN'S IS SUSTAINED BY GENEROUS COMMUNITY SUPPORT, SETTING THE STANDARDS OF EXCELLENCE IN PEDIATRIC CARE.
