Shriners Children's New England Newsletter

PUTTING FOR A PURPOSE! Thank you to the donors, sponsors, golfers and volunteers who supported our Putting for a Purpose event this past September at Fenway Golf in East Longmeadow, MA. Together we raised $150,000 to provide the most amazing care in western Massachusetts.

That is why Shriners Children’s New England has the greatest donors – because you give with your heart and know that every dollar matters when it comes to transforming the lives of children in need. Because of your support, each year more than 12,000 children are cared for at Shriners Children’s New England regardless of their insurance status or ability to pay. Sixty-five percent of those patients receive some form of charity care. Eighty cents of every dollar donated helps bring hope and healing to the patients and families we care for here in Springfield. As the Shriners Children’s healthcare system celebrates its 100th anniversary, your greatness is needed more than ever. Your continued investment will enable us to provide the most amazing care anywhere for another hundred years and beyond. Thank you for your continued support and generosity. “It’s been said that greatness is not what you have, it’s what you give.”
