Fundraising at The Craniofacial Center

In today’s changing health care environment, HMOs, private insurance companies, and government healthcare agencies are reducing or eliminating coverage for many vital patient care services. At the same time, more than half of our patients receive medical coverage from a state agency such as The Illinois Department of Public Aid or The Division of Specialized Care for Children.In order to maintain our high level of patient care, we must seek the support of individuals, corporations, and healthcare foundations. These funds received in the form of gifts and grants are used to support patient care services that are not otherwise covered by medical insurance. Significant financial support has been received from the following individuals, corporations, and health care foundations:

• The George M. Eisenberg Foundation for Charities
• Grant Healthcare Foundation

• Paul Newman Charities
