Dear Dr. Piazza:

On behalf of all of us at Children’s Hospital & Research Center at Oakland, I would like to thank you for your thoughtful online donation. Your support makes it possible for us to always be here for more than 185,000 children who come to us each year.

Since 1912, Children’s Hospital has sustained its commitment to provide extraordinary care for all children, regardless of ability to pay, through primary and subspecialty networks, a strong education and teaching program, a diverse workforce, nationally recognized research programs, and child advocacy efforts. You have every reason to be proud of supporting its achievements as the oldest, busiest and most comprehensive pediatric medical center between Los Angeles and Seattle.

To comply with Federal rules on charitable giving, we certify that Children’s Hospital Foundation has provided no goods or services in consideration of your contribution.

Again, we truly appreciate your generosity, and we thank you for helping us to realize the vision of Children’s Hospital & Research Center at Oakland. I hope that Northern California Marriott Charities will continue to play an important role in providing necessary services to so many deserving children.

Sincerely,

Michael A. Petrini
President and CEO
