The Department of Pediatrics is supported by funds from private philanthropy, government and institutional grants, and patient service revenue. While every source of funding is important, private philanthropic support is especially vital to the success of our research and educational activities. Over the years, the generosity of alumni, friends, and patients has enabled us to provide, improve, influence, and teach about optimal child health locally, nationally, and internationally.
We invite your philanthropic partnership in helping us achieve our missions each day. For your convenience, you can make your gift quickly and securely online at the links below or by visiting SupportMedTraining.duke.edu.
