Diagnosing sight issues early in premature infants. Easing the anxiety of a child during an MRI. Educating a preteen and her family about how to deal with diabetes. Giving a voice to adolescents with speech limitations. These moments are happening to kids across the region because of Covenant Kids and the businesses, organizations and individuals who support it. Every penny of every dollar donated to the Covenant Kids Fund with Covenant HealthCare Foundation stays local and goes directly to support medical programs and equipment for kids.
