I am reaching out on behalf of the Orthopaedic Institute for Children (OIC) Gala Committee, our Board members, and of course, the kids we serve.

 We are thrilled to be making plans for our Stand for Kids Gala. We will be celebrating all of OIC’s superheroes – it will be a night of heroic proportions! Funds raised will give children with orthopaedic conditions a future where they can stand tall, walk, run, grow well, and play well.

 Our 2022 Gala will be on June 11, 2022 at the famous Paramount Studios where we will be honoring Jonnie Davis, President of ABC Studios. We invite you to participate by donating to our auctin that we will use in our on-line and on-site auction.  In recognition for your contribution, you will be highlighted in an email that goes out to our entire database and on social media. We are expecting 800 guests from the Los Angeles philanthropic, business, and celebrity communities. The evening will feature live entertainment, a unique dining experience, and a surprise around every corner of the lot.

Orthopaedic Institute for Children, in alliance with UCLA Health, is one of the most distinguished pediatric orthopedic organizations in the world. We have a proud history of caring for the underprivileged. While staying true to its roots and mission, OIC has evolved into a national leader in academic medicine and is the sole provider of pediatric orthopaedic care for UCLA Health.  OIC makes unparalleled contributions to patient care and scientific discovery in musculoskeletal medicine and treats all children - regardless of their family’s ability to pay.
