Storybook Ball Over the Years

The generosity of Storybook Ball supporters has helped raise more than $41 million to establish new programs and facilities such as the Coordinated Care Clinic and the state-of-the-art Francis H. Burr Proton Beam Therapy Center, enhancing our ability to serve children with complex physical and emotional needs.

However, like most health care organizations across the country and within Boston, Mass General Brigham for Children is not immune to external challenges. In the face of ongoing economic adversity, Mass General Brigham for Children is renewing our commitment to the wide range of existing pediatric programs for which this hospital is renowned.
