Over 107 years ago, we opened our doors with an inspiring Promise to improve the well-being of every child in our care and in our communities. Our health care system has grown and changed over the years, but the magic of Cook Children's has remained the same.
Moments of magic happen every day under our blue peaks. Whether it's a diagnosis made possible by cutting-edge technology, a parent's sigh of relief after a successful procedure or the smile on a child's face as they snuggle with one of our facility dogs, know that every moment of magic starts with you.
Your gift to Cook Children's on North Texas Giving Day is more than a donation. Your generosity will allow our experts to explore new research, say "yes" to new opportunities and provide the "extras" that make our medical centers feel like home.

"My biggest support are the doctors and nurses in Oncology. They are some of the strongest people doing what they do, every day. They are not only here for Kennedy, but for me as well. They go above and beyond. It makes our journey not so hard because we don't feel alone.” – Megan, mom to Kennedy |
Our Promise: Knowing every child's life is sacred, we promise to improve the well-being of every child in our care and our communities.
Every child who walks through the doors of our medical centers arrives with a unique set of needs, and sometimes those needs must be met with unique sources of funding. Our Children's Fund connects the dots between patients and the care they need.
Every dollar raised on North Texas Giving Day will support the immediate needs of families seeking care for their children at our medical centers. Regardless of what's in their pocket or on their insurance card, families in our communities can count on us because we can count on you.
At Cook Children's, diversity, equity and inclusion are more than mere words, they are the core of who we are. We celebrate qualities that make each person unique, and embrace all people regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identification, sexual orientation, disabilities, religious practices, or socioeconomic status. We are also working every day to ensure that we are creating equitable opportunities for our current and future staff members. As a pediatric health care system, we're also committed to initiatives that strive for health equity for all children and their families. Improving the lives of every child through the prevention and treatment of illness, disease and injury.
Racism and prejudices of any kind are social determinants to health with impacts that can last throughout the person's lifetime and harms our community and the families we care for on a daily basis. We strongly encourage tolerance and understanding for all, and we understand the importance of moving forward in a spirit of love and community.
