Johns Hopkins All Children’s Foundation – https://www.hopkinsallchildrens.org/foundation/foundation-home

The mission of the Foundation is to channel family and community compassion into philanthropic action that addresses the financial needs and the mission of Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital through our four tenets: research, education, treatment and advocacy for the children in our care.

Donations made to Johns Hopkins All Children’s Foundation help the hospital continually elevate the quality of pediatric care delivered to our young patients. A few examples of hospital initiatives supported by philanthropy include:

• A new state-of-the-art hospital and campus-based outpatient care center for children and families to have a safe and family-centered environment in which to receive the best care possible.
• Innovative feeding, occupational and physical therapies to help children with physical and developmental delays thrive. 
• A new high-tech biorepository specimen storage and database tool, helping researchers discover better treatments and cures. 
• Participation in more than 300 Institutional-Review-Board-approved research studies to improve the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of children’s diseases and their adverse outcomes. 
• Helping sick and injured kids enjoy childhood despite their health issues through Child Life programs and events like Music Therapy, the annual Halloween Parade and the All Kids Wonderland holiday gift shopping event. 
• Training of future doctors with the Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital pediatric residency program as well as continuing education to push and challenge our team members to be the very best for the children in our care. 

These are just some of the ways philanthropy can have a lasting impact on children’s health.

Southeastern Guard Dogs – Paws for Patriots – www.guidedogs.org/about/our-programs/paws-for-patriots/

There’s no greater distinction than laying down one’s life for freedom’s sake. Some have lost their vision in the line of duty, whether from a roadside bomb or a rare virus. Some recover in military healthcare facilities. And some bear invisible scars; wounds seared on hearts and minds after losing friends, witnessing the unthinkable, and enduring the unspeakable. They’ve served us. Now it’s our turn. That’s why we provide our guide dogs, service dogs, facility therapy dogs, emotional support dogs and Gold Star Family dogs at no charge. Be a hero for our heroes. Support Southeastern Guide Dogs.
