Honoring a Century of Impact:
Inspiring the Next
At Shriners Children's Chicago every gift tells a story — of courage, compassion, and transformation. For 100 years, our mission has been clear: to improve the lives of children by providing innovative pediatric specialty care, conducting cutting-edge research, and advancing outstanding medical education — regardless of a family’s ability to pay.
Together, we are celebrating a century of extraordinary care—and you are part of this story.
As you consider a gift to honor our mission, a patient, a family, a doctor or nurse, we invite you to see how Shriners Children’s Chicago is celebrating 100 years of hope, healing, and impact throughout 2026.
