Children's Hospital Foundation
Children's Tower
Now open, the 500,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art inpatient facility was thoughtfully designed with the understanding that children see the world differently. Featuring new operating rooms, increased imaging capacity, emergency department space, family amenities, and CHoR's extraordinary team of caregivers, we're fostering a child-centered community dedicated to providing the special care children need, in a safe space crafted especially for them.
Donate to child life
The experience in a hospital can be scary for kids, their siblings and families. Our child life team helps patients and families adjust to and cope with the hospital or clinical setting, illness or injury and the treatments involved. Donations to child life help make the hospital more comfortable (and fun!) for kids.
Ways to help
Making an impact
In a single year, more than 80,000 children receive care at CHoR, and Children’s Hospital Foundation helps ensure that these children continue to have world class pediatric health care close to home, right here in Central Virginia.
Children and families come to us from Virginia, across the U.S., and often from out of the country. We cover nearly every pediatric health care need under the sun – from casts to cancer – from simple to complex – we do everything in our power to give kids a shot at a healthy future.
