2024 Day of Giving Tops $450,000 Raised
for Rhode Island and Hasbro Children’s Hospitals
The community came out in force to support Rhode Island and Hasbro Children’s hospitals during the annual Day of Giving on Thursday, April 11, raising an incredible $456,392!
In partnership with WJAR NBC-10 and Cumulus Media Providence, the daylong event took over the airwaves and televisions across the Ocean State to highlight the world-renowned physicians from the Lifespan Cancer Institute and the leading-edge cancer care found right here, close to home.
Throughout the day, people across the region tuned in to hear moving stories of courage, strength, and hope from adult and pediatric patients in the face of devastating cancer and blood disorder diagnoses. Day of Giving also captured the unwavering commitment of Lifespan cancer specialists to provide the best in patient-centered care while delivering some of the most innovative and novel treatments available anywhere.
Day of Giving would not be possible without the generosity of its many sponsors, many of whom offered dollar-for-dollar matching gift challenges and volunteered their time to take calls and accept donations over the phone. Proceeds from the day will benefit cancer programs and care at Rhode Island Hospital and Hasbro Children’s Hospital, as well as the Malloy Strong Fund at RI Hospital and Hasbro Children’s Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Fund.
