St. Louis Children’s Hospital is fortunate to enjoy the generosity of so many people and organizations in the community. Frequently, people spend their own time and money to organize a fundraiser to benefit the hospital. These fundraisers run the gamut: lemonade stands, bake sales, car washes, golf tournaments, car shows, carnivals and more.
