Grateful Families

Your CHKD Journey Can Help Make a Difference

When your child faces a serious illness, injury, or health challenge, CHKD is honored to care for your family. The compassion and support you received can leave a lasting impact — and your story can help make a difference for others.

Through the Grateful Families Program, you can stay connected in a way that feels meaningful to you, by sharing your story, honoring a caregiver, supporting a program, making a gift or getting involved.

Share Your Story

Your CHKD experience has the power to inspire, encourage, and bring hope to other families facing similar challenges. Share your story and help us celebrate the incredible journeys of our patients and families, and the CHKD team members who made a difference in your child’s care.
