Since its start in 1855 as the nation’s first hospital devoted exclusively to caring for children, The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) has been the birthplace for many dramatic firsts in pediatric medicine. The hospital has fostered medical discoveries and innovations that have improved pediatric healthcare and saved countless children’s lives. They are committed to exceptional patient care. The Legacy Foundation provided a grant for their teenage oncology patients by way of forty Welcome Kits. These teenage patients are always looking for things to do that are better suited to their age groups. These kits for new teenage patients include iTunes gift cards, reflective journals, pens, hats and other fun and age appropriate activities.
