#GivingTuesday Supports Kapiolani Medical Center’s New Pediatric Heart Center

Did you know that Kapiolani is building a new Pediatric Heart Center? This future facility will help young patients like Leila-Rose, who was diagnosed with two congenital heart defects by her doctors at Kapiolani’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit after she was born. At just 5 months old, Leila-Rose was flown to the mainland with Kapiolani’s Critical Care Transport team for open-heart surgery. Watch this video to see her story, and learn how donations will help to establish the first Pediatric Heart Center of its kind in Hawaii. In honor of Leila-Rose and Hawaii’s keiki, make a gift to Kapiolani today or on December 1 for Giving Tuesday!
