A snapshot of your impact
Funds raised through SCHF go straight to the front line of children’s healthcare — from hospital wards and treatment rooms, to research labs and outreach programs.
Thanks to our supporters, transformative change is possible. From finding answers to rare diseases, faster ways to diagnose illness and treat injury, supporting clinical trials, helping build clinical spaces in hospital, and creating positive patient experiences for kids and their families.
This is how we turn care into action. This is how we create lasting impact. Learn more.
