We are in an unprecedented time in health care locally, regionally and nationally, and support from our community is more important than ever. Over the past year, we have seen great change as an organization and in the health care industry. Through this change, Children’s Minnesota continues to be a thought leader for kids and kids’ health. I’m privileged to be the new CEO of such a strong and promising health care system as we work to advance Children’s vision of being every family’s essential partner in raising healthier children.

In 2017, we cared for 135,672* individual patients from the five-state region. We helped our community manage and contain the state’s largest measles outbreak in nearly three decades and worked tirelessly to give kids a voice throughout the changing landscape of health care reform. Generous gifts allowed us to make tremendous advances in open fetal surgery through our Midwest Fetal Care Center and helped us launch Children’s Minnesota Community Connect — a care model designed to help us begin proactively addressing the socioeconomic determinants of health in the diverse communities we serve. We are deeply grateful for our community of supporters who stand alongside us in your commitment to improving care and advocating for kids’ health.

In this spirit, we have an opportunity and obligation to do better for kids. As we look forward, we are focused on exploring partnership opportunities with other institutions that will propel us to the next level across all pillars of our mission — clinical care, research, education and advocacy. This goal will help us create a more seamless, coordinated care experience for families, provide resources to advance academic research and innovations in care, and expand our reach to become a nationally-recognized, world-class pediatric facility.

Thank you for your commitment to providing the very best care for kids and families in this community. Your ongoing support is essential to moving Children’s Minnesota forward in our transformative vision for the future.

With gratitude,

Marc Gorelick Marc Gorelick, MD President and Chief Executive Officer Children’s Minnesota

The team of highly-skilled professionals at the Midwest Fetal Care Center performs surgery on a baby in-utero.

ONE IN A MILLION: BABY KORA DEFIES THE ODDS TO OVERCOME RARE TUMOR

At Children’s Minnesota, we care for the most amazing people on earth — sometimes before we even get to meet them. That was the case with Kora Kellner, one of the only babies in history to survive a fetal intervention for an extremely rare tumor on the heart.

Parents Ben and Alysha came to the Midwest Fetal Care Center — a collaboration of Children’s and Allina Health — in July 2017 after a routine ultrasound revealed the tumor (a pericardial teratoma) on the 19-week-old fetus. Fewer than one in a million babies develop such tumors, they learned, and it’s often fatal. But Dr. Joseph Lillegard, a pediatric surgeon and leader of the open fetal surgery program at the Midwest Fetal Care Center, gave them hope: an in-utero surgery to resect the tumor — a surgery that’s only been attempted a handful of times — might give their daughter a fighting chance.

At 26 weeks’ gestation, Dr. Lillegard and Children’s cardiovascular surgeon Dr. Francis Moga performed the fetal surgery along with a team of specialists in maternal fetal medicine, pediatric surgery, anesthesiology and cardiology. The surgeons removed about 90% of the tumor.

After surgery, Kora continued to gestate until delivery via C-section at 35 weeks. Although premature, Kora (whose name derives from corazón, which means “heart” in Spanish) entered the world weighing a healthy 6 pounds, 4 ounces. She spent 42 days at Children’s Minnesota in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Cardiovascular Care Center, undergoing an additional open heart surgery to remove what remained of the tumor.

Today, Kora is officially tumor-free, healthy and living at home full-time with her parents. Her amazing story is a testament to the power of transformational giving: our philanthropic community is making the future brighter for moms and babies.

As part of our patient-and-family-centered care philosophy, parents are encouraged to take an active role as part of their child’s care team.

IN THIS TOGETHER: WHAT IT MEANS TO DELIVER PATIENT-AND-FAMILY-CENTERED CARE

We see amazing every day. So we’re used to being in a hospital. But most families aren’t — and that experience can be one of the hardest things they go through. That’s why we believe in a patient-and-family-centered approach to care, one that’s as much about emotional support as it is physical healing.

For Bill and Jodie Shields, who’d been parents for just a few hours when they first came to Children’s, that kind of care was a source of great comfort. When their first child, Parker, was born with a subcranial hematoma, they were terrified. But as their newborn was taken to the NICU, the parents met with a calm, confident neonatologist who gave them some peace of mind: they were all going to be OK.

“This was extraordinary for a scared new dad who had absolutely no idea what was going on,” says Bill.

Two years later the Shields welcomed their second son, Charlie, who was born with a complex congenital heart defect. In his first three years of life, Charlie had several surgeries, along with countless procedures, tests and visits to nearly a dozen specialists. “On some of the hardest days of our entire lives, our care team was there to heal us,” Bill remembers. “We may be just another family, and we know that Children’s sees hundreds of families a day, but they did miracles for us and for our kids.”

Today the Shields children are healthy. Their grateful parents support other families at Children’s through fundraising as part of Team Superstars and Walk for Amazing, among other donations. Their giving enables us to deliver a level of care that honors parents and families as the constant in the child’s life — and their biggest supporters.

The way we see it: when it comes to caring for the most amazing people on earth, we’re all in this together.

FOR WALMAN OPTICAL, GIVING IS A TEAM EFFORTMarty Bassett, CEO and president of the Walman Optical Company, is a champion for kids’ health — both as a Children’s Minnesota board member and as the driving force behind his company’s corporate giving and engagement efforts. Employees of Walman frequently provide meals for families through the Cooks for Kids program at the Ronald McDonald House at Children’s Minnesota St. Paul Hospital, where they also host arts and crafts activities for patients. Among their many donations to Children’s (totaling more than $600,000), the team at Walman has helped fund pediatric critical care transport, rooms in The Mother Baby Center and the dining room in the Ronald McDonald House at Children’s St. Paul.

GIVE TO KIDS DAY HELPS FAMILIES COPE WITH HOSPITAL STAYS When your child’s in the hospital, little things mean a lot. With Give to Kids Day, a series of one-day, online fundraising campaigns, we highlighted the need for those little things — meal vouchers, transportation, parking. In September we raised $5,282 — enough to provide 812 meals — and in December our giving community went above and beyond to surpass the fundraising goal of $6,000, donating more than $14,000 to provide transportation and parking vouchers for patient families.

–Marty Bassett, CEO and president, Walman Optical

MARVIN WINDOWS AND DOORS CEO RACES FOR CHILDREN’SPaul Marvin may be the CEO of one of Minnesota’s oldest companies, but to his six kids, he’s simply Dad. When daughter Mary Kate was just three months old and facing open heart surgery to repair a faulty valve, Paul and his wife Maureen had their first of many experiences at Children’s, a place he calls a “resource, a refuge and a source of inspiration.” Seven years later, Mary Kate is healthy and Paul is deeply involved in supporting Children’s as a member of the board of directors, a strong supporter of Star Gala and a fundraising powerhouse on Team Superstars, our program for amateur athletes who compete in races while raising money. Running in his first-ever marathon last year, Paul also recruited 20 other runners, most of them employees of Marvin Windows and Doors. Together, Team Marvin raised over $110,000 for Children’s.

“ We recognize the importance of Children’s Minnesota in the lives of our employees, their children and the community. We’re more than happy to raise money for the organization, in part because it gives our team the opportunity to be together, away from the office, and engage directly with patients and families. There’s no better way for our employees to see up close the impact of our charitable giving.”
