Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health

The Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health is the primary fundraising organization for the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford and the maternal and child health programs of the Stanford University School of Medicine. The foundation's mission is to elevate the priority of children's health and increase the quality and accessibility of children's healthcare. It engages in fundraising efforts to support research, education, and patient care at the hospital, ensuring that all children and their families have access to the best possible medical treatment, regardless of their ability to pay.

The foundation works with a diverse range of donors, including individuals, corporations, and other foundations, to secure the necessary funding for the hospital's various programs and initiatives. Its business model is that of a non-profit organization, where all proceeds from its fundraising activities are channeled directly to the hospital and the university's pediatric and obstetric programs. This funding is critical for advancing medical knowledge, developing new treatments, and providing comprehensive care to children and expectant mothers from all over the world.
