Driscoll Ambassador Family Program

When patients and families come to Driscoll Children’s Hospital for help, they are met with the same compassion, spirit, and generosity with which Clara Driscoll blessed our community when she founded the hospital 70 years ago. We believe that nothing is more precious than our children and we promise that every child that enters the doors of the hospital is cherished and loved. The Driscoll Ambassador Families Program was designed to share that promise with the community and bring awareness to the lifesaving work being done at Driscoll. As an Ambassador Family, you may be asked to attend and speak at various fundraising events throughout the year as a Driscoll Children’s Hospital representative. You will help us promote our mission of being devoted to expert care, education, outreach, and advocacy and, ultimately help us raise critical funds that support the patients and families of Driscoll.

Become an Ambassador Family
