Dear John,
Every day is different at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, but one thing stays the same: We're always there for our patients.
And after 52 years as an orthopaedic nurse here, I've learned the immense power of a single day to give a child hope. It's one more day spent with loving family. One more day filled with smiles instead of tears. One more day to play with toys. One more day to just be a kid.
John, you make another day possible for the thousands of children who come through CHLA's doors every year. With just a few days left to have your gift matched, now is the time to donate and have your generosity go twice as far to care for sick kids. Make a gift of $10 now.
Day in and day out, we're there for the sick and injured kids who need our care the most. Offering that kind of compassionate care to children is why I became a nurse. It's not just a job for me, and it's not just scoliosis and broken bones—it's a philosophy, a way of being. And with so much uncertainty right now, I keep coming back to that core belief: that every child is deserving of the best possible care we can provide.
So while the COVID-19 pandemic may have changed how we do things, it hasn't changed what we do. That means creating hope and building healthier futures. And there has never been a greater need for hope and health than right now.
Providing cutting-edge, child-centered care will always be at the heart of what Children's Hospital Los Angeles does. But we can't do it alone.
Your gift of $10 will help us to keep doing what we do best: providing care for children in need, conducting much-needed research and offering the support that helps kids and their families get through some of the toughest times in their lives. Every day, we're able to do all this and so much more thanks to people like you, John.
With your support, we'll keep changing—and saving—lives. Make a tax-deductible year-end gift
of $10 before Dec. 31 and it will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $675,000.
If my last 19,081 days (yes, really!) at CHLA have taught me anything, it's that YOU are part of everything that we do here—and I'm so grateful for your support. Thank you for helping us deliver the very best care to the kids who need it most.
With care,
