Hearts for Hope Spring Luncheon
to benefit The Yellow Door Foundation
The Hearts for Hope Spring Luncheon is the Yellow Door Foundation’s signature spring fundraising event, bringing together community leaders, medical partners, families, and friends in support of children and families facing life-saving medical treatment far from home.
Now in its fourth year, Hearts for Hope celebrates the mission of the Yellow Door Foundation: to provide safe lodging, comfort, and compassionate care to families of immunocompromised pediatric patients receiving treatment at UVA Health Children’s hospital. By easing the logistical burden and expense of long-term lodging during extended hospital stays, YDF allows families to focus on what matters most—their child’s health and healing.
We hope you can join us on April 21st.
Guests are encouraged to wear yellow in solidarity with pediatric cancer patients and in support of the Yellow Door Foundation’s mission of hope, care, and comfort.
