Executives for Children's Campaign
Volunteer Event Fundraising
Atlanta area business men and women looking for a unique volunteer experience to support Children's Healthcare of Atlanta should consider the Executives for Children's (E4C) campaign.
The E4C fundraising campaign is in place to help the Atlanta Tennis Championships raise funds for pediatric cancer research at the Aflac Cancer Center at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Children’s is the official charity partner of the Atlanta Tennis Championships being held July 19-25 at Atlanta Athletic Club. E4C’s will help sell hospitality, premium box seats and ticket packages to the tournament by simply emailing the event order form to their business contacts. The E4C campaign will begin in mid-April and run until June 30. The Atlanta Tennis Championships handles all of the orders and you can earn some great team and individual prizes while volunteering at your own pace. Additionally, E4C's sell sponsorships to the Tim Hudson Braves Celebrity-Am on July 19 and also to the PGA TOUR Championship September 23-26.
The combination of events and business networking to improve pediatric healthcare in our community is what makes this campaign extra special. As an Executive for Children's volunteer, you're not asking for a donation, but offering individuals and companies a chance to support Children's Healthcare of Atlanta while having fun and entertaining their clients at Atlanta's premiere charity events. Your time commitment is minimal but your involvement will help innumerable kids being treated at Children's.
History
Executives for Children's was formed in 1988 as Executives for Egleston by Horace Sibley, then chairman of the Board of Egleston Children's Hospital at Emory University, and J.L. Jerden of the Atlanta Classic Foundation. This campaign has generated over $16 million in its 17-year history. Proceeds from the AT&T Classic have been used to fund a number of significant areas at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta including a new hematology/oncology unit, operating room equipment, heart diagnostic equipment, the liver transplantation program, a neurological rehabilitation unit, a child protection program, the Sibley Heart Center, and pediatric brain tumor services. With the dissolution of the AT&T Classic, the E4C program will now support the Atlanta Tennis Championships and other events benefiting Children's.
