Community members and philanthropic supporters will gather for an elegant evening of purpose and celebration at “April in Paris,” a Parisian-inspired fundraising event benefiting UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland. The event will take place on April 11 at 6:00 p.m. at Claremont Country Club in Oakland.
Hosted by Hill Branch, this special evening will bring together local leaders, supporters, and families who share a commitment to advancing critical pediatric care for children throughout the East Bay and beyond. This year’s event aims to raise funds for the Children’s Oncology Group. UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland enrolls approximately 100 children each year in cancer clinical trials, none of which are reimbursed by insurance. The more children enroll, the more robust the results become, and the more children gain access to potentially life-saving new treatments.
The mission behind the evening is deeply personal for many in the community. Among the families impacted is a local family whose daughter is currently receiving treatment under the care of Dr. Karen Rabin, one of the dedicated physicians serving patients at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland. Their journey highlights the profound importance of compassionate, world-class pediatric care and the vital role community support plays in making that care possible.
Hill Branch has a long-standing tradition of philanthropy, and “April in Paris” continues its legacy of bringing the community together to support children and families facing medical challenges. Hill Branch has raised over $7M for UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital. This money has funded important equipment and services that have saved the lives of thousands of children.
Community members, supporters, and media are invited to attend and help raise awareness for this important cause. To purchase tickets visit hillbranch.org today, this event is expected to sell out!
