In lieu of gifts this holiday season, honor your friends and family by making a donation to the Steele Children's Research Center in their name. 

 

Your loved ones will receive a beautiful card informing them of your donation (amount will not be included), and can include a special message from you. In addition to honoring friends and family, this is a great way for businesses to honor associates and clients.

These special gifts will enable us to further our mission of researching causes and developing cures for childhood illnesses and diseases, bringing today's care and tomorrow's cures to families throughout Arizona. 

For more information or to make a donation this holiday season, please contact Laura Hopkins at (520) 626-9618 or hopkins@peds.arizona.edu. 

 

For children  living with chronic diseases and life-threatening illnesses, a sense of normalcy is vital.

 

An unexpected outing filled with fun and excitement, and a much-needed distraction, is even better.

 

Thanks to a thoughtful donor who donated his extra tickets to the Steele Center, Ella and her dad enjoyed a UA men's basketball game and a night together, showing that it doesn't always take money to make an impact.

 

This holiday season, consider brightening a patient's day with a small gesture. Whether tickets to a sporting event, coupons for bowling or miniature golf, or gift certificates to rent a movie, your gift can make a big difference.

 

For more ideas and information on how you can make a difference, contact Mariana Vazquez at (520) 626-9773 or vazquez@peds.arizona.edu 

 

 
Thank You Runway for Research!  

 

Heartfelt thanks to Colin Easom and all of the volunteers who worked hard to make Runway for Research's 3rd Annual Children's Fashion Show a wonderful success! The sold-out event raised $8,000 for pediatric cancer research at the Steele Center, and gave many of our patients the chance to have a day of fun!

 
Raise A Racquet for Kids: A smashing success!
