A gold heart held in a pair of hands

Tribute and legacy giving

The Heart of Gold award was established in 1997 and is the highest form of recognition for donors to St. Louis Children’s Hospital. Recipients are required to have made significant contributions to St. Louis Children’s, must have demonstrated personal involvement in the mission, and their gifts of time and resources must elevate the quality of care available at St. Louis Children’s Hospital.

We are proud to recognize each of these Heart of Gold recipients for their remarkable commitment to doing what’s right for kids.
