The Dell Children's Trust of Central Texas was established to nurture the next generation of leaders for Dell Children's. It is a philanthropic organization comprised of people who share an interest in pediatric healthcare and are dedicated to providing leadership through service and philanthropic support to Dell Children's.
The Dell Children's Trust is collaborative giving to create impact. Departments and programs within Dell Children's apply for support. Each Spring, Partners vote to direct their pooled funds. Annually they select one or more areas of the medical center to support.
