Our Shared purpose
The Hearts for Kids Employee Giving Campaign empowers us — as employees — to help create the Dorion Family Pediatric Center, a dedicated healing space for Community PēdsCare® children and their families.
By giving together, we demonstrate our shared commitment to compassion, inspire our community, and show that comfort is something we build as one team.
Every role matters. Every gift heals. Every heart helps.

Why the Dorion Family Pediatric Center Matters
Families facing serious pediatric illness need more than medical care — they need comfort, dignity, and support during life’s most difficult moments. The Dorion Family Pediatric Center will serve as a place where:
• Children feel safe, supported, and understood
• Families can rest, connect, and create meaningful moments
• Care extends beyond medicine to emotional, spiritual, and practical support
As employees, we see this need every day — and we have the opportunity to be part of the solution.
Our Campaign Goals
This campaign is about participation, unity, and leadership.
Our goal is to inspire 100% employee participation because every gift, of any size, makes a difference.
When employees give, the community follows.
How Employee Giving Makes an Impact
Employee contributions directly support:
• Construction and enhancement of the Dorion Family Pediatric Center
• Therapeutic programming for children and siblings
• Family gathering, respite, and comfort spaces
• Ongoing support services for caregivers
Your generosity helps ensure families experience compassion, dignity, and moments of comfort — regardless of diagnosis or ability to pay.
