Summer growth from the ground up

A strong building starts with a solid foundation.

 That’s true whether you are building a new children’s hospital tower, managing
a team of contractors and subcontractors or generating a groundswell of support
for a Children’s of Mississippi expansion at the University of Mississippi Medical Center.

While their collaboration and cooperation will result in bricks and mortar, glass and steel, operating rooms and intensive care beds, none of their labors, nor our vision for the future of pediatric care in Mississippi, would be possible without the strong foundation of your
support for Children’s of Mississippi
and your generosity.

We are, as always, grateful for your compassion, care and philanthropy.
