Chase Foundation

The goal of the Chase Foundation is to raise the resources to expand Chase Child Life services so that every child admitted to Childrens Hospital Los Angeles will be able to participate in and benefit from its Child Life program.

The Chase Child Life Program at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles offers children a diversion from the trauma of hospitalization. The program concentrates on emotional rather than physical needs, allowing children an escape from their conditions and a chance to revel in the joys of childhood.

In Chase Place playrooms, at bedsides and in designated areas throughout the hospital, kids discover things that light up their eyes and warm their hearts. Painting, poetry, games, toys, magic, music, and puppet shows are the order of the day. Here, there are no needles, machines, or scary tests. Only playtime, fun, laughter and understanding.
