Thank you Kohl's Department Stores for giving Children's Memorial its largest
corporate gift to date
The children of Chicago's West Garfield Park community
have a new safe place to play, thanks to Kohl's Department Stores. Kohl's
recently pledged $5 million to Children's Memorial Hospital to launch the Kohl's
Cares for Kids® Safety Network and provide continued support for the hospital's
Family
Services
programs.
The Kohl's Cares for Kids® Safety
Network is
dedicated to preventing unintentional injury, which is the leading cause of
death for children between the ages of 0 and 14 and to improving safety
conditions for children in their homes and neighborhoods. One such initiative is
the Safe at Play program for which Kohl's has pledged to build five new
playgrounds throughout Chicago during the next five years.
This past summer, more than 150 Kohl's
associates worked side by side with West Garfield
Park residents to build the
first of these playgrounds, which meet the latest Consumer Products Safety
Council standards.
Kohl's gift, the
largest corporate gift to the hospital to date, is made possible by
the Kohl's Cares for Kids® program. Throughout the year, Kohl's sells special items
with 100 percent of the net profits benefiting health and educational
opportunities in the communities Kohl's serves.
A portion of Kohl's $5 million gift will support
Children's Memorial Family
Services
programs, which
address the developmental, social and emotional needs of hospitalized children
and their families.
