Meet Our Patients
Listen to KTAR News 92.3 FM and 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station during Give-A-Thon Week to hear how your support helps Phoenix Children’s patients like Lukas, Stella and Chase.

A family vacation to Disneyland turned into a terrifying ordeal for Lukas’ family when his parents noticed his extremities had started to swell and turn purple. Learn about Lukas’ battle against a rare, life-threatening genetic disorder and how he earned the nickname “The Overcomer.”

Surgery to remove a tumor from Stella’s brain stem left her unable to talk. But her face would light up every time Yankee the therapy dog visited. Hear how Phoenix Children’s Animal-Assisted Therapy Program helped Stella heal from surgery and learn to talk again.

At the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, a 15-year-old’s simple cough was a sign of a much worse prognosis. Chase was admitted to Phoenix Children’s Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders and found himself in a battle no teenager should have to face. Learn about his triumphant recovery and return to competitive golf.
About Give-A-Thon
Now in its 23rd year, Give-A-Thon is the country’s largest radiothon for a children’s hospital. Last year’s event raised $1.8 million for Phoenix Children’s Hope Fund, a critical source of funding for the areas of greatest need.
It costs nearly $2.7 million per day to operate Phoenix Children’s. Patients are accepted regardless of their ability to pay, and about 50% of patient families have little or no private medical insurance. Without the help of our generous donors and partners, we could not provide the lifesaving care Phoenix Children’s is renowned for.
Our Give-A-Thon fundraising goal this year is $2 million, which we know is achievable with the help of caring people like you. We hope you’ll join us and make this year’s Give-A-Thon another amazing success.
