Boston Children's Hospital | Eversource walk for kids

Your impact

Your fundraising helps provide lifesaving answers for the sickest kids and their families, many with nowhere else to turn. All funds raised by individuals (not on a team) go directly to the Every Child Fund—supporting care and services for patient families that are not covered by insurance and advancing promising research.

How you help kids and families
