Heroes Like You

Who makes our mission possible?

Heroes like you.

Being a hero doesn’t require rushing into a burning building to save lives. The definition is a bit broader than that and requires only the selfless attempt (and intent) to benefit others through some amount of personal sacrifice. When you give your assets to help create healthier futures for all children through life-changing care and cutting-edge research, you become a hero—at least to the children and families whose lives are changed at UPMC Children’s.

What does a hero look like? Here are just a few of the supporters who have Put a Child’s Future First.

Our mission. Your impact.

If you are exploring ways to make a difference today or in the future, we can help.
