Students to Raise Money for Children’s Hospital
The WVU 2009 MBA class will hold an elimination dinner on March 28 at Lakeview Resort to raise funds for the West Virginia Children’s Hospital.
The dinner, which begins at 6 p.m., is an effort to raise money to continue research that will lead to treatments for young children.
The event will include a 50/50 drawing, silent auction, and a variety of door and cash prizes.
More than 6,000 children are admitted annually to the WVU Children’s Hospital. The hospital delivers more than 1,500 babies at its Infant Care Center each year.
WVU Children's Hospital is on the sixth floor of Ruby Memorial Hospital. It provides maternal, infant and pediatric care for families in West Virginia and the surrounding region. Physicians and staff care for high-risk mothers, premature infants and children with life-threatening conditions through adolescence to adulthood.
"Children's Hospital is the only institution of its kind in West Virginia,
said Amar Grover, MBA class president. "It provides essential services to one
of the most vulnerable segments of our population. That makes it vital that
we, West Virginia's future business leaders, rally together with the community
to ensure continued financial, educational, and emotional support for this
distinctive institution."
