Need one reason to give to the MCG
Children’s Medical Center?
We have four.
1. Children need a hospital just for
children.
We all know that children are special. But many times, we
forget that kids are more than just small adults. They have
special needs and require special expertise. And they come in
all sizes, from the tiniest newborn to a nearly grown
teenager. At MCG Children's Medical Center, we provide
specialized diagnosis, treatment, equipment and support for kids of
all ages and all sizes.
2. We are committed to finding better ways to
treat children. As part of an academic medical center, we are at the
forefront of medicine, conducting the research that advances
pediatric medicine and bringing the treatments and technologies of
tomorrow to children today. Our team of pediatric specialists
- the largest number in the area - use their expertise and training
to treat everything from common childhood illnesses to
life-threatening conditions.
3. Children and their families matter most at MCG
Children's Medical Center. We're a hospital designed by children, for children.
Children and their parents are active participants in the hospital,
serving on advisory committees and directly contributing to our
mission of providing patient- and family-centered
care. Children and parents were involved in the design of the
hospital, working with planners and architects to make the hospital
child- and family-friendly throughout. It's no surprise, then,
that the result is an award-winning facility.
4. We are a not-for-profit organization. We rely on philanthropic and volunteer support to help us
provide high quality care for our children. Your gift makes a
difference in the life of each child we treat. It is through
the generosity of our donors and volunteers that we are able to
purchase specially designed equipment and supplies for children,
offer patient-centered programs and services, and recruit and
retain world-class pediatric physicians and other health care
professionals.
