It Starts with Us Giving Campaign

The It Starts with Us
giving
campaign is an annual celebration for Lucile Packard Children’s
Hospital Stanford care providers, colleagues, and volunteers to fundraise on behalf of the
patients and families we care so deeply for and spread our hope and pride through the
community. 

Every day we give our time, our hearts,
and our expertise—and during the month of October, we fundraise. Why? Because
supporting our patients starts with us. 

Celebrating
Philanthropy Together

During the entire month of October, Packard
Children’s team members have the opportunity to celebrate our hospital together
by giving a donation of any size
that supports the patients and families we care for every
day.

Your generous contribution is impactful at any level, and together,
all gifts achieve so much!

$10: You
could provide a
gas card for the Care-a-Van for Kids so a patient without another form of
transportation can make it to their appointment and receive
treatment.

$30: You could provide a Chemo
Duck—a helpful tool for our child life specialists to help ease a
child's anxiety and fear about
treatment.

$100: You could help accelerate
research toward better care and cures for our
patients.

$1,000: Join our
Circles of Leadership! The
Circles of Leadership giving society recognizes some of our closest
donors who give $1,000-$9,999 annually to Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital
Stanford and/or child and maternal health programs at Stanford University School of
Medicine*.
