Remembering the magic from this past week as first responders showed up for our kids during CHoR's 4th annual goodnight lights event. Fifteen minutes of lights, sirens and every emergency vehicle around made for more smiles than we can count. Thank you!
Many thanks to @HamiltonMusical star Miguel Cervantes for visiting last week before his inspiring performance at the 9th annual Children’s Hospital Foundation Words & Wisdom event. The event helped raise over $420,000 to support the stars of the show right here at CHoR! 🤩 🎵

We kicked off Child Life Month with our first #LEGO party with the Richmond LEGO team today in our new Child Life Zone and so much brick fun was had by all!
Great to see 15-year-old Rocky recognized with Dr. Frazier Frantz, the medical director of our chest wall reconstruction program, during #CHoR night at the @VCU Rams men’s basketball game last night. And how about those new warm up shirts the @vcuathletics players were rocking?
