Set Up a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)

You can use the flexibility of your donor-advised fund to recommend a grant or recurring grants directly to CHKD. Contact your fund administrator to make a gift. Your grant should be recommended to Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters (EIN 54-0506321).

Make a Distribution from Your Individual Retirement Account (IRA)

If you are 70 years and 6 months or older, you can make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) to CHKD from your IRA. For those 73 or older, this counts toward your required minimum distributions and may reduce your taxable income. Contact your IRA administrator to request a QCD to CHKD.

Support Child Life

Toys, games, books, and craft supplies help bring hope our patients and families during their most challenging times. Find more information and view our Amazon registries and general wish list here.

Double Your Donation

Many companies will match donations to organizations like CHKD – doubling or even tripling its value in a matter of minutes – making your gift go even further for our kids.
