The Broward Health Foundation received a grant of $400,000 from the Florida Panthers Foundation to be used for the renovation of the pediatric oncology unit at Chris Evert Children’s Hospital. The announcement was made during a special ribbon cutting and reception at Chris Evert Children’s Hospital located at Broward Health Medical Center. While the survival rate for children with childhood cancer has increased greatly over the last several years, cancer is still the leading cause of death by disease among U.S. children. The Foundation is grateful to have a committed partner like the Florida Panthers Foundation and the entire Panthers Organization who have pledged to make fighting pediatric cancer a priority. As part of the renovation, the pediatric oncology unit now features a bold new Florida Panthers theme. “The Florida Panthers Foundation and the entire Panthers organization is thrilled to be taking such a significant step in the fight against pediatric cancer,” said Panthers Foundation Executive Director Rachel Brooke. “In working with the Broward Health Foundation to make this donation, we are making a strong statement that any child or family struggling with this disease is not alone in their fight. Our players, coaches, staff, executives and the Foundation are committed to supporting them in any way possible, and the wonderful new Panthers-themed graphics in the Chris Evert Children’s Hospital pediatric oncology unit will serve as a reminder of that pledge.”
