You Can Play an Important Role in Texas Children’s Future
The J.S. and Lillie Abercrombie Society honors individuals who have included Texas Children’s Hospital in their wills, trusts and other long-term plans.
Through your membership in the Society, you will be helping Texas Children’s keep the single, clear promise upon which we were founded, a promise to serve all children regardless of their families’ ability to pay, providing them with “a refuge from the ravages of disease and illness, and the hope for health and happiness.”
Our founders’ vision was realized when Texas Children’s opened its doors in 1954. We were one of the first organizations in the Texas Medical Center and the first hospital in Houston dedicated solely to healing sick children. Texas Children’s has grown a great deal since then, and we have faithfully kept our promise for more than 65 years.
Your gift will create a lasting legacy to ensure Texas Children’s growth and progress far into the future. Together, we can create a healthier future for children and women throughout our global community by leading in patient care, education and research.
