Children’s Hospital Foundation
Our Mission
Our partnership with the Children’s Hospital Foundation represents our commitment to making a lasting difference in our community.
We understand how important it is to help our healthcare community and the patients they serve. By collaborating with the Children’s Hospital Foundation, we aim to provide diverse donation and volunteer opportunities for our team and the broader Cornerstone Community.
Reflecting on our journey, Samantha Miklos, our CEO, shares,
“It has been our goal to partner with a healthcare charity in our community and to make a positive impact on our healthcare community and the people they help every day.”
