Give Kids in the Hospital a Healthier New Year

By PoP Sponsor (a)

Nearly every two minutes, a family turns to Children’s National Hospital for care.

Earlier this year, Sumukh came to Children’s National for six months of chemotherapy treatments. Through Mario Kart leagues, game shows and friendships with his care team and other patients, he laughed, played and got to be himself, even while facing cancer.

Every time you donate, you light up Dr. Bear, the hospital’s mascot, giving patients joy and powering expert care.

Your support helps children in the Washington, D.C., region and around the world heal faster and get back to being kids. Donations also advance pediatric research that leads to new treatments and cures.

Give by midnight on December 31 for your gift to be matched and double your impact for patients like Sumukh.
