Honor or memorialize your family, friends and loved ones by making a gift to support CHoR. An honorary or memorial gift is a wonderful alternative to standard gift giving and is a perfect way to honor or remember the special people in your life. Not only will your gift express your love—it will also help give the gift of expert health care to children in need.
Please explore our commemorative giving opportunities below and find the option that best suits your needs. If you have any questions, please contactCaroline McClain, Leadership Annual Giving Officer at804.221.7720.
