Families Giving Back

Building a community of grateful families.

Donate Items

Children's National accepts books, toys, clothing, gift cards, and other non-medical items for our Dr. Bear's Closet. These donations are given to patients and family members during their hospital visit to provide comfort, offer distractions, and to normalize the hospital setting.

Donate Blood

Did you know that some children with certain medical conditions, such as sickle cell anemia, need one to 10 units of blood per month or that one unit of blood can be used for as many as four of five children? The Blood Donor Center collects thousands of blood donations every year and provides essential services for Children's National patients. Learn how you can donate blood today!

Donate Your Birthday

Share your birthday with a child. Celebrate your life, and give a chance to someone who desperately wants to have as many as you.

Volunteer

It takes only a small amount of time to make a big difference in a child’s life.
