Historic Campaign to Fuel Tomorrow’s Breakthroughs
Published on in Breakthrough Report
Every day, the team at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) provides cutting-edge clinical care to young patients and relentlessly pursues cures for the future. But there’s more work to do.
To fuel the next advances that will save more children’s lives, we launched For Tomorrow’s Breakthroughs: The Campaign for Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in October 2017. The campaign is the most ambitious fundraising effort in our 162-year history.
Our goal is to raise a historic $1 billion by 2020 — and we’ve already reached the $800 million mark! Donations will support five critical areas.
Game-changing research
We will set the standard for pediatric healthcare worldwide, by creating new treatments for the most complex conditions and working to ensure that every child grows into a healthy adult. Learn more.
An exceptional patient-family experience
We will provide children and families with the most advanced treatments at the best facilities, and offer the most comprehensive support programs. Get the details.
Training the leaders of the future
We will prepare the new generations of top pediatric care providers whom children worldwide so desperately need. Learn more.
Outreach to children and families in need
We will transform the health and well-being of children and families throughout Philadelphia, in the region and across the globe. Get the details.
Resources to act quickly
We will give CHOP the power to immediately say “yes” to new opportunities as they arise. Learn more.
“CHOP is on the cusp of breakthroughs for many of the toughest conditions and diseases that strike children — but we can’t get there without you,” say Campaign Co-Chairs Jef Corson, Mark Fishman and Brad Ingerman. “We invite every reader to be part of this campaign. Give today and be amazed tomorrow.”
