The Mount Sinai Children’s Center Foundation (CCF) was founded in 1989 to support children and families served by Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital and the Jack and Lucy Clark Department of Pediatrics in the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Since its inception, the CCF has raised more than $30 million for meaningful children’s health initiatives, primarily through its annual Benefit. It is through the generous support and enthusiastic participation of our board members and friends that Mount Sinai Kravis Children's Hospital has become one of New York City's preeminent pediatric care facilities. Mount Sinai has been caring for children and adolescents for more than 130 years, since Abraham Jacobi, MD, founded the first pediatric department within a hospital in New York City in 1878. Today, we continue that distinguished tradition of excellence at our Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital, which is consistently ranked as one of the top children’s hospitals in the country.

The CCF provides vital funding to enrich care, treatment, and support for sick children and their families. This includes therapeutic support to ease anxiety and humanize a child’s stay at the hospital, funding for our most promising young investigators working to find new cures and treatments, and critical hospital renovations to create an uplifting and nurturing environment of care to foster the best possible experience for all children and families.

Every year, the CCF raises most of its funds primarily through the annual Benefit. It is through the generous support and enthusiastic participation of our board members and friends that Kravis Children's Hospital has become one of New York City's preeminent pediatric care facilities.

The Mount Sinai Children's Center Foundation is a 501c (3) non-profit organization. All donations made to The Mount Sinai Children's Center Foundation are tax-deductible.

The most recent project of the CCF has been supporting the mission of the Program for Underserved Children. The goal of the program is to develop a research program that can improve the care of children growing up in poverty nationwide.
