Grandparents Initiative

Giving Forward. Giving Back.

Making a gift in honor of your grandchild.

Grandchildren are a great joy. They bring us laughter, renewed energy and a fresh perspective. We want the best for them, whether it is the finest education, the safest playgrounds or preeminent health care.

We also want to leave a legacy for our grandchildren. Passing down financial resources and heirlooms is important. Passing down values like compassion, honesty, giving back and helping others is priceless.

One way to share important values is to involve your grandchildren in the charitable gifts you make. You can give to Riley Children’s Foundation in honor of your grandchildren and support Riley Hospital for Children. In the process, you will help your grandchildren understand the importance of helping others and give hope to ill and injured patients at Riley Hospital.

If you wish to make a gift in honor of your grandchildren, please use the special grandparents giving form.

“I’ve begun to appreciate the generational patterns that ripple out from our lives like stones dropped in water, pulsing outward even after we are gone. Although we have but one childhood, we relive it first through our children’s eyes and then our grandchildren’s eyes.” - Anne Cassidy
