ON THE COVER: Marcquille Johnson, 16, of Hartford,
was recently selected to be Connecticut Children’s 2011
Champions representative. Marcquille was diagnosed
with sickle cell disease when he was an infant. Each year
Marcquille has between four and six inpatient stays and many
more emergency department and care visits at the Medical
Center for disease and pain management.
AT RIGHT: Like all children at the Medical Center, Piper,
accompanied by his Granny, had the opportunity to drive
himself to the operating room for his surgical procedure.
Piper and his friends were part of a video called “Small
Tales” which was filmed at Connecticut Children’s. The video
is aimed at easing children’s fear of surgery.
Each day Connecticut Children’s doctors and
medical staff work tirelessly to deliver leading edge
medical care — in an environment that understands
the concerns of a child.
At the same time, every day, people in the
community come forward to make it all possible
with donations of time, talent and financial
resources. These donations, large and small, come
together to create our dynamic, thriving
children’s medical center.
Working together we are making hope a reality for
our region’s children and families.

Foundation
Dear Friends,
“We can’t tell you how grateful we are to have this hospital nearby and what
an impressive place Connecticut Children’s really is.”
These words remind me of why our continued support of Connecticut
Children’s is so vital. This year more than 288,000 children have been
helped by the exceptional care and services provided by the Medical
Center. Giving kids the care they deserve is only made possible by the
generosity of our donors.
Fiscal year 2010 was a banner year for the Foundation — its best
ever — with over $8 million dollars received from an amazing group of
compassionate donors. This impressive fundraising total demonstrates
the strength of support we enjoy from our donor community, Boards of Directors, faculty
and staff.
As you have read in the previous pages, philanthropic support is essential in turning hope to
reality. The stories we have shared with you represent the thousands of gifts we receive each year.
Behind each gift is a special story all its own — with one common thread. Every donor has the
desire to help advance the tremendous work that occurs each day at the Medical Center.
As I conclude my tenure as Chairman of the Foundation Board, I do so with a great sense
of pride and gratitude. I am proud to be associated with countless individuals who share my
commitment to the Medical Center’s mission and thank the entire Connecticut Children’s
community for investing in the health of our children. If children are indeed our future, then
the future is made brighter by your support of Connecticut Children’s.
Sincerely,
Anne P. Sargent
Chair
