The Trust
No limit to what we can accomplish together

At Children's National Hospital, members of The Trust make up a prestigious donor community recognized for lifetime philanthropic contributions of $1 million or more. Membership in The Trust represents the highest honor for donors at Children's National and excellence within the philanthropic community.
The word trust conveys responsibility, dependability and hope. It reflects the confidence that families have in Children's National to provide expert and compassionate care during their most difficult moments. It refers to the trust our donors place in Children's National to steward their meaningful gifts. This generosity makes it possible for us to deliver the world-class care that every patient needs — and deserves.
Members of The Trust include individuals, family and private foundations and corporations that:
- Gain early access to news from Children's National, personal communication from hospital leaders and tailored stewardship touchpoints
- Enjoy unique opportunities to connect with philanthropic leaders shaping the future of children's health
- Receive exclusive invitations and recognition at special events, such as the formal Trust reception, Children's Ball, Race for Every Child and professorship ceremonies
We are grateful to our distinguished Trust members for their extraordinary investments that advance pediatric medicine.*
