The recent merger between the parent companies of Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego and Children’s Hospital of Orange County is bringing together two leading pediatric institutions under one nonprofit health system: Rady Children’s Health. This milestone strengthens a shared commitment to advancing pediatric care – expanding expertise, accelerating research and delivering faster answers for complex and rare conditions.
For the philanthropic community, what has not changed is just as important as what has. While Rady Children’s Health will create even greater opportunities for collaboration and shared innovation across Southern California, the generosity of Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego donors continues to make a direct and lasting impact here at home. The mission of the Rady Children’s Foundation remains deeply rooted in San Diego. Donations continue to benefit the local community, directly impacting the children and families served by nonprofit Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego.
Rady Children’s Foundation is committed to ensuring that every child in the community, regardless of their family’s ability to pay, has access to world-class care close to home. The organization’s generous donors remain central to that mission, helping sustain the care, programs, and services that bring healing and hope to families throughout San Diego.
Philanthropy is what makes extraordinary care possible. Community support is essential for bridging the gap between what great care costs and what insurance covers. More than half of the children served by Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego have no private insurance. Thanks to the generosity of donors, they receive the same level of excellence and compassion as every child who comes through the hospital’s doors.
Donors help drive transformative care for families in the region and beyond. Their generosity sustains exceptional care, fuels innovation through cutting-edge technology, and powers pioneering research that leads to faster diagnoses, better treatments, and brighter futures. Together, the Foundation and its community of supporters are not only meeting the needs of today – they are shaping the breakthroughs of tomorrow, building a healthier and more hopeful future for children and families.
Same exceptional care. More possibilities.
