Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU will soon provide even better pediatric care.

Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU (CHoR) is growing to meet Virginia’s pediatric needs, including building out shell spaces, recruitment efforts for top pediatric specialists, advancing research, and intensive training for the next generation of experts.

The growth ensures CHoR remains among the nation’s best, as recognized by U.S. News & World Report. In the publication’s 2025-26 Best Children’s Hospitals rankings, CHoR was named a top 50 hospital in eight of 11 ranked subspecialties, including Cancer (#39), Neonatology (#43), Neurology & neurosurgery (#40), Gastroenterology (#50), and more.

Our local hospital isn’t stopping there, either. CHoR’s treatment plans go beyond the exam room: they’re also expanding programs like music therapy and child life services, and building a Family Resource Center to support families with housing, transportation, food, and other social + emotional needs.

Donate to help CHoR continue to provide unstoppable care to kids.
