This partnership, between a Level One Regional Pediatric Trauma Center and an Adult Level One Trauma Center, was created in a response to the devastating injuries to children that each facility was receiving. The Children's Hospital and St. Anthony's Central enlisted a powerful community service organization -- the Rocky Mountain District of Kiwanis -- to help spread the word. Kiwanis clubs provide the essential "volunteer" role in this project and fund its annual operating costs.
We are fortunate to have additonal funding partners for this project. They include:
- a matching grant from the State of Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Injury Prevention Division
- matching funds from Neidiger, Tucker & Brunner, Inc.
- funding from Kohl's department store and Metropolitan Homes
