The Children's Foundation of Memphis is a private foundation that was established in 1982 with the sale of The Crippled Children's Hospital. Their mission is to serve the health and well-being of children in the Memphis area, primarily through supporting pediatric medical research and funding programs that promote healthy childhood development and academic achievement.
Through their partnership with the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and Le Bonheur Children's Hospital, the Children's Foundation Research Institute has been conducting pediatric medical research since 1993. Additionally, they provide grants to a select number of youth-serving organizations in Memphis that focus on helping children reach their full potential and become independent, productive adults by promoting healthy development and preventing high-risk behaviors.
