Please check out our latest Stewardship Report from the Children's Memorial Foundation which says: 
"Our ability to respond effectively and efficiently to the complex needs of our patients and their families have been made possible through the help of generous philanthropic support – and the past year was no exception. Funding from the Junior Council has made a significant impact for patients seeking treatment at our Special ID clinic, 
who would otherwise go untreated."

The Junior Council - an affiliate of Children’s Memorial Hospital (CMH) - is a volunteer organization comprised of young professionals and guided by the belief professed by Children’s: all children need to grow up in a protective and nurturing environment, where each child is given an opportunity to reach his or her potential.

The specific mission of the Junior Council is to support pediatric, adolescent and maternal AIDS and HIV research and care conducted at Children’s Memorial Hospital and the Children’s Memorial Research Center.

We recently unveiled The Junior Council's Dr. Yogev Treatment Fund, a fund that we will contribute $40,000 to every year to help meet the needs of some of Dr. Yogev's patients nearing the age of 18 who might otherwise not receive the care that they need.  The fund can be used at Dr. Yogev's discretion and will help provide medical testing and treatment for things otherwise not covered by Medicaid.
