Program areas at Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health
Child Health research grants: the Foundation provides grants to the pediatric programs at the stanford school of medicine and the Lucile Packard Children's hospital to fund clinical programs, research, education, and training. The grants are funded by a grant received from the david and Lucile Packard Foundation between 2000 and 2004. The Foundation oversees the disbursement of the Packard Foundation grant funds through independent review of the research programs. Any Foundation oversight expenses are paid for by the investment earnings on the original grant.
Foundation programs: through its programs and partnerships work, the Foundation seeks to build awareness about issues affecting Children's Health by investing in programs to enhance the system of care for children with special Health care needs and their families and through the provision of data on the Health and well being of children in California. During the fiscal year ended august 31, 2019, the Foundation invested approximately $4.9 million in this area.
