The Board of Visitors has strengthened existing services and programs at Children’s and established foundations for transformational research and healthcare through its Major Gifts Program for many years. In response to a defined need, urgent request, or as initiated by BOV membership, financial gifts are developed in close collaboration with hospital professionals and awarded in a timely manner to achieve the most effective benefits.
The “Major Gifts Program” was formally established by the BOV in 2005, recognizing the prior 135 years of giving significant amounts of critical funding to Children’s Hospital.
