Critical funding with a profound impact.
Grants provide an important source of funding for Connecticut Children’s research priorities, community health initiatives, and capital projects, areas that rely on philanthropy as they are not supported by medical insurance.
Corporate and private foundations fund the personnel, equipment, and partnerships that allow our teams to pursue research, enhance programming that promotes children’s optimal healthy development, and create facilities that are vital to our mission.
Grants to Connecticut Children’s impact the entire organization, from seed funding for young investigators to transformative gifts in support of hallmark programs and cutting-edge facilities.

Grants in Action
Behavioral Health
Through an investment from Bank of America, the Transitions Clinic at Connecticut Children’s is helping more kids and teens and their families as they navigate behavioral health crises. Grant funding from Bank of America enables the Transitions Clinic team to minimize the follow-up treatment time for children experiencing behavioral health crises, with a team of caregivers addressing patient and family needs.
Hybrid OR
The Timken Foundation of Canton is supporting the development of Connecticut Children’s new Hybrid Catheterization Operating Room – the “Hybrid OR” – which will serve cardiology patients and others undergoing surgery. The facility will feature a large, fixed imaging system needed for neurosurgeries, catheterizations, and other procedures, allowing for more complex minimally invasive and open surgeries.
Oncology Research
The National Pediatric Cancer Foundation is one of the partners support our Center for Cancer & Blood Disorders, which offers treatment and hope to patients today, while working to discover the cures of tomorrow. The Foundation recently recognized Connecticut Children’s as a top-performing children’s hospital in pediatric oncology clinical trials, which are accessible to all patients who wish to participate.
