A big night, several steps closer to pediatric distinction
Patrons and proud supporters of the initiatives of Wolfson Children’s Hospital came together to celebrate the most anticipated social event of the season. The Opening Night Party, titled BOXWOODS & BowTies- A modern twist on Southern Traditions was held at the Prime Osborn Convention Center Dec. 5.
With the mission clearly in focus, over 400 members of the Women’s Board have raised more than $24 million for facilities, equipment and programs over the years. The three-day show and sale that follow, produced annually by The Women’s Board, will help to raise the bar for Wolfson Children’s Hospital, along with its partner Nemours Children’s Clinic.
The current funding target of The Women’s Board is a new, state of the art Pediatric Surgery Center of Distinction. The facility, when complete, will enable the most skilled surgical staff to work on advancing surgical techniques. One other gain for our region will be the expanded use of minimally invasive and robotic surgery for pediatric trauma patients.
