Bring Families Hope and Healing this GivingTuesday

Every two minutes, a family turns to Children’s National Hospital for care. Kids and families spending their holidays in the hospital especially need a reason to believe — in first steps, giggles and hugs.

 

Now through GivingTuesday (December 3), your donation goes twice as far to help elevate pediatric care and advance groundbreaking research that leads to new treatments and cures. CityCenterDC will match your gift, up to a total of $25,000, through GivingTuesday!

 

Your generosity helps patients like:

 

Aila, 6

 

Aila doesn’t let cerebral palsy stop her from dancing ballet, practicing violin or playing basketball, thanks to world-class care. In Colombian tradition, she loves lighting candles with her family on la Noche de Velitas to start the holidays with a glimmer of hope.

 

Chloe, 9

 

Chloe found expert treatment at Children’s National for Farber disease, a rare genetic condition. She received the best gift of all, a successful bone marrow transplant from her sister. Over the holidays, she loves making s’mores and watching Home Alone with her family. 

 

James, 11

 

James loves rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles and playing with his cats Uno and Linus. He also finds a steadfast team at Children’s National for treatment for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Each year, he decorates his own tree with Eagles, Phillies and Disney Cars ornaments. 

 

Thank you helping us bring hope, healing and holiday cheer to every child and family this GivingTuesday!
