Anywhere health care is provided for children battling life-threatening cancers, heart defects, brain disorders, spinal deformities and more, you can see the impact of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. With more than 528,000 patient visits last year, CHLA provides care to more kids than any other facility in the region.
At Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, we create hope and build healthier futures.
When hospitals and caregivers run out of options to save a child, they often turn to the experts at our main campus on Sunset Boulevard, or at one of our regional outpatient centers in Arcadia, Encino, Santa Monica, South Bay and Valencia. Families from all 50 states and more than 50 countries look to CHLA to provide for their critically ill and injured children.
Knowledge is power, and we openly share ours. The Saban Research Institute of CHLA is one of the largest and most productive freestanding pediatric research facilities in the United States. Children’s Hospital Los Angeles also is one of America’s premier teaching hospitals, through its longstanding affiliation with the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California. More than 1,200 California pediatricians owe their medical training to compassionate CHLA faculty.
“Helping children heal is our primary mission and we cannot achieve this without community support,” says CHLA President and CEO Paul S. Viviano. “While some children’s hospitals choose to focus on one area of child health, we focus on them all. With 350 programs and services just for children, we’re prepared to help children recover faster.”
CHLA provides the equivalent of $267.4 million in community benefit and $3.4 million in charity care every year. We bridge that difference one gift at a time, through the generosity of members of our community.
Every gift counts. Please support children in L.A. and around the world with a donation to CHLA’s Live L.A. Give L.A. campaign. Your gift helps ensure that all of our patients receive the critical, lifesaving care they need. Please give generously at CHLA.org/GiveLA.
