  • Any local child may receive care at Packard, regardless of his or her family’s ability to pay.
  • Our young patients, and children worldwide, benefit from the scientific advances of researchers at the Stanford School of Medicine.
  • Packard’s outpatient clinics receive more than 130,000 visits from local children each year.
  • Our extensive network of community and outreach services makes it easier for thousands of children throughout the Bay Area to access the care they need.

Your support directly benefits our community

Care for All
Your gifts help provide care for every child who comes through our doors, including children from our community with insufficient or no health insurance.

Research for Tomorrow

By funding progressive pediatric and obstetric research at Packard and Stanford, you enable our physicians and researchers to transform innovative ideas into new treatments for critically ill children.

Family and Community Services

Your generosity supports programs that are not covered by insurance but are vital to a patient’s healing, as well as programs that bring our care into Bay Area communities.

Double your gift

If you were not a Circles of Leadership member last year, or if you increase your level of support to the next Circle, your gift may be matched up to a total of $2,500.

The Keith and Pamela Fox Family Foundation has committed $100,000 this year to encourage new and increased Circles of Leadership gifts to the Children's Fund.
