A letter from Larry – January 2021

Larry Burns with Kathy Donovan, President & CEO, Children’s Hospital of Michigan, and Heath Roberts, COO, Children’s Hospital of Michigan, during the summer of 2020

Greetings!

I hope that everyone had an enjoyable holiday season and a safe launch to our new year.

As we are coming off a record-setting year with over $7 million invested in our communities we hope 2021 is even brighter and better than last year!

On January 1, we commemorated the 10th anniversary of The Children’s Foundation being an independent nonprofit organization. Our Board of Trustees celebrated with a New Year’s Day toast while remembering individuals such as David Page, Derek Sarafa, and Dr. Larry Fleischmann who were so instrumental in helping us become the organization we are today.

As we start this new year we now have over 115 partners throughout the state and are extremely excited about all the possibilities that lie ahead in the coming year. I look forward to keeping you informed and I hope that you join us on our continual journey to help children, young adults and families.

Onward!

Lawrence J. Burns
President & CEO
