Why Give to Children's Hospital?
Why give? Because we need your help.
We use each gift, no matter the size, to help save children’s lives.
When you give to Children’s Hospital & Research Center Oakland, you
- invest in kids
- advance innovative research that leads to cures for cancer and other childhood diseases
- support access to specialized pediatric care for the sickest and most vulnerable children
Your generous donations help us deliver critical and compassionate care. Kids need your support now.
Please make a difference. Give.
With your support, we're delivering the finest specialized pediatric care available—care that is changing the lives of kids like these:
Amanda came to us with brain cancer,
her very survival at stake.
Thanks to advances in bone marrow
transplantation developed here at Children's,
Amanda is now cancer free with a lifetime of dreams ahead of her.
Roman was born with a cleft lip and palate.
Today, with the help of Children's comprehensive team
of expert surgeons and specialists,
his beautiful smile can light up a room.
Isaac was born with sickle cell disease and faced a lifetime of blood transfusions and pain. Using techniques pioneered by scientists at Children's, Isaac received transplanted cord blood from his baby sister's umbilical cord. Now he's sickle cell free—forever.
While many hospitals throughout California have cut back on specialized pediatric care to meet their bottom line, we are steadfastly keeping our doors open to children—regardless of whether their families can pay. Your tax-deductible gift helps makes this possible.
