Helping Critically Ill Children and Their Families
We need your help! Jackson Chance Foundation is looking to raise an additional $100,000 in 2023 in order to EXPAND our NICU Transportation Program to University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital.
The University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital NICU is a tier 4, 75-bed unit offering state-of the art technology and leading expertise in the neonatology field. This NICU sees more than 1,000 babies and their families annually and they need our support. If each of our supporters donates $111 or more, we will achieve our goal and help improve the lives of these babies and their outcomes.
A $111 donation will provide for 10 days of parking.
A $300 donation will provide for a month of parking.
A $900 donation will provide for 3 months of parking.
A $3,600 donation will provide for a year of parking.
Donations to Jackson Chance Foundation go much farther than most! Did you know that your donation can save families 3X your donated amount? Our unlimited access, 24/7 passes are not available individually or short term. A $300 donation can save NICU families over $1,000 in monthly parking costs. *
Over the past 10 years, JCF has removed the financial burden of parking fees for over 20,000 families and provided over 700,000 days of parking. We strive to give every family the opportunity to be with their child each and every day.
Help us expand the NICU Transportation Program to Comer Children’s NICU and extend our support to more than 1000 additionally NICU families each year. Check out the ways to donate and get involved with JCF – proceeds from our events go to our NICU Transportation Program!
