Ways to Donate
There are so many ways you can donate to MUSC Children's Hospital. This section of our Web site will
provide you with a closer look at a few of our charitable programs and how you can make a difference in
the life of a child.
Our Children's Hospital Fund plays a major role in the development of programs at MUSC Children's
Hospital and they need community support for three primary purposes. The first is to support the
child life department of the hospital with toys, games, art supplies and other materials to
entertain children and make their visit more pleasant. The second is to support research in the
prevention and treatment of childhood diseases by seeking gifts from individuals, businesses and
foundations to continuing to help develop the research programs at the Children's Research Institute.
And the third is to support the development of treatment programs within the department of pediatrics.
Ways to donate include:
Children's Miracle Network
Every year we receive generous donations from our community through the
Children's Miracle Network Broadcast. All of the money raised in the
Lowcountry stays in the Lowcountry. From the donations that we receive throughout the year, to the
donations call in on the day of the broadcast, we are able to purchase life-saving equipment, support
vital programs and continue growing our services so we can meet the needs of our region's children.
Did you know that you can start helping the children long before the phones start ringing? We sponsor special events and promotions throughout the
year. These events and promotions result in contributions that are recognized on the broadcast. If you
are interested in participating in one of our many events or promotions just give our office a call
at (843) 792-2624.
The next local broadcast will be May 31. Tune in to WCSC-TV5 from 8 am to 6 pm to see local Miracle Stories of patients here at MUSC Children's Hospital. Call in on May 31 to (800) 478-4090 or locally (843) 792-8000 to become a Miracle Maker for only $15 per month or to make a one-time donation.

Planned Giving
Planned gifts, also known as deferred gifts, are those made through estate planning. In most cases,
their value passes on to MUSC Children's Hospital after a specified period of time or after the
donor's death. These gifts may consist of bequests, gift annuities or charitable remainder trusts,
to name a few. If you are interested in learning about planning giving options please contact
Jan McCullough at (843) 792-4280.

great way to help out the children and have fun at the same time. For a listing of our upcoming
