Providence cares for kids.
More than 9,000 babies are born in a Providence hospital every year, each with their own unique health care needs. Some arrive as premature babies. Some develop chronic conditions or challenges. Some are healthy but are affected by the medical conditions of family members.
When children are involved, illness and injuries affect entire families. Thanks to generous donors, we help families navigate the twists and turns in each child’s health care journey.
Your gift will support the programs and services that impact and improve the lives of children and their families.
