r e a c NEW h HEIGHTS ing dea r FRIENDS, The past year brought many ups and downs for health care organizations, with most of those related to the economy. The same was true for Children’s Hospital and Health System. To be sure, 2009 was a year of challenge, but more importantly, it was a year of excitement, opportunity and growth. Larry Rambo Our peak, of course, was the opening of Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin’s new west tower last March. The expansion allows us to provide private rooms for patients in all three towers. It also offers amenities to make the entire inpatient experience more comfortable, safe and efficient for patients, their families and our own staff. Of course, the year also brought a significant challenge in the form of H1N1 influenza. Thanks to incredible teamwork among our patient care staff, support staff and volunteers, we were able to manage hundreds of flu-related patient visits while continuing to care for children with other needs. Jim Miller Between the spring and fall waves of flu activity, we took a bold step west. In August, we opened Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin Clinics-New Berlin to bring our specialty treatment services closer to patients and families in Milwaukee’s western suburbs. Our patient counts continue to rise there, and we’ve been warmly welcomed by the community and local health care providers. At the same time, we continued to provide health and safety education, social services, foster care and adoption, and related services through Children’s Health Education Center and Children’s Service Society of Wisconsin. At Children’s Research Institute, our investigators continued to explore ways to diagnose and prevent health problems before they occur. Their success in identifying genetic markers for polycystic kidney disease is a great example of the center’s groundbreaking work. Peggy Troy, MSN, RN While expansion played a big role last year, we know there is more to be done. The demand for our surgical services continues to grow, and our Emergency Department/ Trauma Center needs additional space. We also are committed to expanding our role in supporting underserved children. We look forward to our continued partnership with you to help provide the very best care and services for children and families in our community – as we have done for more than 100 years. We hope you enjoy the stories and information that follow. Your involvement and investment make our mission possible, one child at a time.

Children’s Hospital and Health System has more than 2,200 volunteers who donate 42,000 hours each year. Their service is valued at more than $800,000 annually. 14 r e m e m b eMILESTONES ring JANUARY Peggy Troy, MSN, RN, joined Children’s Hospital and Health System as president and CEO. Children’s Hospital and Health System launched chhsblog.org to share information on child health topics. The blog offers comments on pediatric health, parenting, injury prevention and child safety, advocacy, adoption and foster care. FEBRUARY In its February 2009 issue, Parents magazine published the results of its Best Children’s Hospitals Survey. It rated Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin third in the nation. In addition, Children’s Hospital earned top-10 ratings in five specialty areas: emergency medicine No. 2, neonatology No. 5, pulmonary medicine No. 7, heart care No. 9 and cancer care No. 10. MARCH Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin opened its new west tower, beginning a new chapter in its 115-year history of caring for children. The 12-story, 425,000-square-foot west tower expansion increased the hospital’s bed count to 296 and allowed us to provide private rooms throughout the hospital. The tower has room for additional expansion. The American Nurses Credentialing Center once again named Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin a member of the prestigious Magnet® Recognition Program for excellence in nursing services. C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Gov. Jim Doyle visited Children’s Research Institute to learn about the cutting-edge, innovative research center located in Milwaukee. After a tour of the laboratories, the governor heard from investigators about their research and how the support of the state government and donors has improved health care for Wisconsin children. APRIL Children’s Health Education Center’s BlueKids.org e-learning programs now deliver health education to more than 15,000 Wisconsin students. The programs address growing health-related issues in children, including drug abuse, bullying, obesity, nutrition and body image. MAY Radio hosts Dave Luczak and Carole Caine hosted the 12th annual Dave & Carole Miracle Marathon on WKLH 96.5 FM for Children’s Hospital. The annual radiothon raised $1.3 million, bringing the grand total to more than $12 million in 12 years. The 2009 Fore the Kids Charity Golf Classic continued the late Max McGee’s efforts to help children with diabetes. JUNE The Welfare Auxiliary of Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin presented a check for $165,000 to benefit the hospital’s Child Protection Center. The gift represents the largest donation to date raised by the auxiliary’s annual fundraising event, the Swan Ball. Since its formation 83 years ago, the Welfare Auxiliary has raised nearly $2.3 million. 2 chw.org/foundation JULY Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin proudly partnered with the U.S. Bank Championship. The Pro-Am Fore Kids kicked off the tournament’s week of festivities, along with the Imagine the Possibilities Dinner Celebration. Since 2000, the Pro-Am and Dinner Celebration have raised more than $3.7 million to support programs, clinics and research. La Gran D 104.7 FM, a Milwaukee-area Spanish language radio station, hosted a three-day radiothon July 9-11, raising more than $53,000. The 32nd annual Wisconsin Football Coaches Association All-Star Charity Football Game benefiting Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin was held at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. The event raised more than $130,000 for patient care programs. AUGUST Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin Clinics-New Berlin, a new outpatient specialty center, opened to the public. The outpatient center brings more than 15 pediatric specialties closer to the children and parents of New Berlin, Wis., and surrounding communities. Among its specialties are Allergy/Asthma (adult and pediatric), Audiology, Behavioral Health, Cardiology, ENT and Gastroenterology. Radio listeners participated in the FM 106.1 Care-A-Van for Kids benefiting Children’s Hospital and Health System’s Child Abuse Prevention Fund. Featuring inspirational stories told by child abuse and neglect survivors, the two-day radiothon raised more than $120,000. SEPTEMBER The 11th annual Louie’s Last Regatta attracted more than 140 boats. This is one of Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin’s largest independent fundraising events and has contributed more than $550,000 in support of cancer care since its inception. C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin announced the launch of an influenza prevention campaign. The campaign, titled “Children’s Flu Fighters,” helped educate preschool and school-age children and their caregivers about how to prevent the spread of viruses – including H1N1 – as well as other common winter illnesses. OCTOBER The 32nd Briggs & Al’s Run & Walk for Children’s Hospital was a huge success. More than 14,500 participants helped raise more than $1 million. To date, this event has generated more than $10.5 million in support of patient care programs. The first Push.Pull.Pedal. event was held at Winnequah Park in Monona, Wis. With more than 150 participants, the event raised more than $24,000 for Herma Heart Center. NOVEMBER The 20th annual Sugar Plum Luncheon, a holiday-themed event, was held at Westmoor Country Club in Brookfield, Wis. It raised more than $55,000. Bids for Kids, a fundraising dinner to benefit adoption services provided by Children’s Service Society of Wisconsin, was held for the 14th time. The event raised $110,000. DECEMBER Children’s Hospital and Health System released its latest Community Benefits Report. The report shared details regarding more than $114 million that health system entities invested in the community in 2008.

The most significant, perhaps, was the opening of Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin’s west tower. This 12-story, 425,000-square-foot addition addressed a pressing need for more inpatient beds. It also allowed us to provide private rooms for patients throughout the entire hospital. We also expanded our cardiac catheterization lab. Cardiac catheterization is a procedure that tests how well the heart is pumping by examining the blood flow to the heart. The new cath lab, opened in February 2010, provides safer, more reliable patient care with the best equipment available. It is the only pediatric hybrid cath lab in Wisconsin, allowing us to conduct many complex and life-saving surgeries in a minimally invasive way. Plans are developing to expand Children’s Hospital’s surgical space. The need for operating rooms and special procedures rooms has risen steadily during the past 10 years. In 2000, we performed 11,965 surgeries. In 2009, the number was 15,822. “The demand continues to grow,” said Mary O’Connor, MBA, MSN, RN, director of Surgical Services. “We project another 4 percent growth for 2010. It’s crucial that we expand to serve the needs of our patients.” C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin’s new cath lab. Did you know? Forty-one interpreters serve children and families in the hospital who do not speak English fluently, helping them feel comfortable and safe. $50 can help a family receive professional translation services while at the hospital. 5 mCOMMUNITY e e t iNEEDS ng Dental care is high priority for health system Good oral health is essential to kids’ well-being Kids and their families often overlook dental care, yet it’s critical to good pediatric health. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, early childhood tooth decay may be the most prevalent infectious disease among our nation’s children. We know it’s a problem in southeastern Wisconsin, particularly in Milwaukee’s economically disadvantaged neighborhoods. In fact, dental problems are the No. 2 reason patients visit our Emergency Department/Trauma Center. Many of those children are treated at Children’s Dental Clinic. C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T The clinic accommodates nearly 20,000 visits each year. For Camilla Boyles and her newly adopted daughter, 4-year-old Danayja, the clinic was life-changing. Prior to treatment, Danayja had chronic mouth problems. She couldn’t bite into solid food, and she could not smile. The Dental Clinic treated Danayja, whose problems were complicated by a rare, underlying disease called chronic neutropenia. Now, with a healthy mouth, little Danayja has a wonderful smile. Unfortunately, Children’s Dental Clinic doesn’t have the capacity or financial resources to treat all the children in Milwaukee who desperately need dental care. Many of these children are insured only by Medicaid, which typically covers just 36 percent of dental costs. With donor funding and community support, Children’s is planning to build the Next Door Dental Clinic at the Next Door Foundation in Metcalf Park, an impoverished neighborhood just north of downtown. The clinic will make dental care accessible to children who would otherwise go without. This care could prevent years or even a lifetime of dental pain, mouth problems, misplaced or missing teeth and a host of related health care problems for children in Milwaukee. 6 chw.org/foundation C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Danayja and her mom, Camilla Boyles.

Several family members posed for a recent photo, including: (back row) Amanda, Eric and Nicholas Post; (middle row) parents Chris and Callie Post; (front row) Saxon, Ella, Callie and Aubree Post. Callie and Aubree are Eric Post’s twin daughters. 8 chw.org/foundation Family Finding program helps kids find permanent homes connects foster children with biological family members One of the most important factors for establishing safe, permanent homes for children in out-of-home care is helping them find meaningful connections with biological family members. Studies show that children thrive when cared for by family members. Children’s Service Society of Wisconsin is helping to connect children with their families through the Family Finding program. The program was launched in 2009, thanks to a $1.2 million grant from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families – Children’s Bureau. The grant calls for the health system to raise an additional $600,000. Children’s Service Society was one of only four agencies nationwide to receive funding. The grant will allow Children’s Service Society to provide family-finding services to kids throughout Wisconsin. The goal is to help more than 300 children in foster care during the three-year grant period. The Family Finding program uses a computer-based research method to identify and locate family members. Children’s Service Society’s Family Finding specialists use the information to help connect kids in out-of-home care to biological relatives. The specialists team with family members to create a plan that helps provide a safe, permanent home for each child. C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T The program recently connected Callie and Christopher Post of Marshall, Mo., with a 2-year-old relative in foster care in Milwaukee. “Before we were contacted through Family Finding, we didn’t even know about little Alexander,” Callie explained. “We came to Milwaukee to meet him and spend time together over Thanksgiving weekend, and he fit in so well with our family.” The Posts, who have seven children including 1½-year-old twins, hope to become Alexander’s foster parents. “I think he’ll do well with us,” said Callie, a registered nurse. “He needs to be loved and have a family to hug him. When we learned that he needed a permanent home, we knew he belonged with us.” “It’s incredibly important for children to connect with their families,” said Maria McDermott, director of Out-of-Home Care for Children’s Service Society. “They need to be part of a family, not just part of a system.” Did you know? Children’s Health Education Center distributed more than 600 car seats last year and taught families how to install and use them. The program relies on donations and received $200,000 in 2009. 9 e x p THE l oPOSSIBILITIES ring Research leads to screening for a common yet deadly kidney disease Another example of bench-to-bedside care For the parents of little Addison Strobel, the months and years ahead will be filled with many typical questions about their daughter’s development. “When will she walk?” “When will she talk?” “Will she excel in school?” “Is she happy and healthy?” C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T One thing they won’t have to question is whether or not she could have polycystic kidney disease – a disease that took the life of her brother shortly after birth. Thanks to groundbreaking research conducted by Children’s Research Institute, in partnership with The Medical College of Wisconsin, Jana and Tim Strobel welcomed their daughter with healthy kidneys. Polycystic kidney disease, which is inherited from parents, results in the growth of fluid filled cysts in the kidneys. Eventually it can prevent the kidneys from functioning normally. Polycystic kidney disease is the third leading cause of chronic kidney failure and affects at least 1 in every 4,000 people. Children’s Research Institute discovered a unique method of testing for the disease. It involves creating whole genome amplification from a single cell. This technique eliminates many common problems previously seen in other protocols and allows genetic testing to be performed very early. The research team was led by Ellis Avner, MD, director of Children’s Research Institute. He also serves as a professor and associate dean, Research, at The Medical College of Wisconsin. Thanks to the team’s efforts, Children’s Research Institute has created a worldwide resource to help parents have a child free from polycystic kidney disease. It is yet another example of translational research, in which Children’s Research Institute takes clinical problems from patients’ bedsides to the laboratory. Laboratory discoveries are then converted into new treatments, preventive measures, therapies and cures for patients. 10 chw.org/foundation C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Jana and Tim Strobel with Addison.

Through all those years of change, the commitment of our supporters to help make life better for children has remained the same. Their gifts touched thousands of lives. On behalf of the children who sought care and treatment in 2009, we thank more than 20,000 individuals, corporations, foundations and organizations that donated more than $18.5 million last year. We will go forward to provide the best care possible to every child regardless of his or her family’s ability to pay and continue to carefully, thoughtfully steward your investment. 12 chw.org/foundation Areas your gifts supported $8,000,000 Clinical $ 3,167,238 Research $ Advocacy $ 1,550,651 Education $ 1,003,896 International health $ West tower $ 1,174,352 Unrestricted funds $ 3,938,935 Endowment funds $ 7,174,813 $7,000,000 510,721 $6,000,000 $5,000,000 $4,000,000 $3,000,000 $2,000,000 $1,000,000 $0 95,583 $18,616,189 Source of gifts $7,000,000 $6,000,000 $5,000,000 $4,000,000 $3,000,000 $2,000,000 $ 6,496,538 Corporations and closely-held corporations $ 4,506,048 Foundations $ 445,160 Organizations and schools $ 346,040 Events $ 1,615,718 Planned giving $ 5,206,685 C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T $1,000,000 Individuals and family foundations $0 $18,616,189 Grant funding 10,000,000 $8,000,000 $6,000,000 $4,000,000 $2,000,000 Children’s Hospital $ 3,503,426 Children’s Research Institute $ 9,376,262 Child Abuse Prevention Fund $ Children’s Health Education Center $ 2,939,758 School-Health Nurse Program $ 1,013,306 Children’s Service Society $ 1,627,876 745,947 $19,206,575 $0 13 s e c uTHEr FUTURE ing 2009 COMMITMENTS C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Donors who made a commitment payable over time during the past year. $250,000 and above $25,000 – $49,999.99 Abbott Fund Mr. and Mrs. Dennis H.

Children’s Hospital and Health System has benefitted from the family’s ongoing generosity. D.C. Jacobus planted the first seeds of philanthropy when he founded the Jacobus Family Foundation in 1954. When he died in 1985, his four children decided to split the foundation along family lines. Charles D. Jacobus launched the Charles D. Jacobus Family Foundation in 1986, with a focus on children’s needs. He, his wife, Eugenia, and the Jacobus Company made generous gifts to the foundation. The foundation established a fund at Children’s Hospital for cancer care that they contribute to annually. Charles Jacobus’ daughter, Missy Jacobus MacLeod, stepped in to manage the foundation upon his death in 1997. MacLeod now serves as president of the foundation and also serves on the Children’s Hospital and Health System Foundation Board of Directors. “In addition to cancer care, we fund programs and services that help children who live in parts of Milwaukee that are underserved,” MacLeod said. “We’re concerned with health care and issues like obesity and safety as well as mental illness. Children’s works to meet those needs. We think Children’s is incredibly important to Milwaukee for the care it provides, and also for its economic impact. It’s a huge employer that is very important to the local economy.” Dr. Thomas H. Dunigan Ms. Lee Anne Eddy Florie and Tom Enders Tom and Nancy Gazzana Mr. Thomas A. Greene Dr. and Mrs. David D.

Many years ago, the Rambos were involved with a start-up organization, the Health Education Center. As parents, they believed in the concept of teaching kids how to live healthier lives and take care of themselves before they got sick. As a businessperson, Larry was keenly aware of the Larry and Kathi Rambo rising cost of health care and the importance of preventing illness before it strikes. Larry’s employer made a generous contribution to the center, but it was clear that it needed more help and direction. As president of the center’s board, Larry turned to Children’s Hospital and Health System to ensure ESTATE GIFTS RECEIVED the center could continue to serve Milwaukee and grow for the future. The health system stepped up to the challenge. Children’s Health Education Center was born. Since then, the Rambos have continued to support the center as well as other components of the health system, including Children’s Research Insti- C H I L D R E N ’ S H O S P I TA L A N D H E A LT H S Y S T E M F O U N D AT I O N 2 0 0 9 A N N U A L R E P O R T Elaine and Max Baverman Marie A. and Howard P.

He has donated countless hours to board work and currently chairs the Children’s Hospital and Health System Foundation Board of Directors. In addition, the Rambos established the Larry and Kathi Rambo Fund for Education and Research. They support their fund with generous annual gifts and have named Children’s Hospital and Health System as the owner of a substantial life insurance policy. Larry and Kathi also have included the health system in their estate plans as a beneficiary of their trust. Larry is president of the Wisconsin and Michigan markets for Humana Inc. “Being in the health insurance business, I bring my own, personal perspectives to the health system, and I appreciate what it provides to Wisconsin and beyond,” he said. “It’s been really rewarding to see the return on investment from our time and our gifts. We can see how they help families.” “What Children’s does for children and families is so impressive,” Kathi said. “We’ve learned so much and met so many wonderful people.” 27 2009 CORPORATIONS, ORGANIZATIONS AND FOUNDATIONS Corporations, organizations and foundations with annual gifts of $1,000 or more in 2009. $250,000 – $499,999.99 The Boldt Company Johnson Controls Foundation RE/MAX International, Inc.

Driven by this noble cause, Variety has forged a long-standing relationship with Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. To date, Children’s Hospital has received more than $1.6 million from this special organization. Variety and Children’s have reached yet another milestone together – the purchase and installation of a new EOS low-dose radiation scanner. Children’s Hospital is the first pediatric health center in the Midwest to obtain this new equipment. It will be used primarily for children with idiopathic scoliosis and other chronic orthopedic conditions that require frequent imaging. sional image with 1/10 the radiation of an X-ray and 1/1000 the radiation of a CT scan. “Traditional X-rays are required regularly for our scoliosis patients, and multiple X-rays over time can increase the risk for developing breast or thyroid cancer,” said John Thometz, MD, medical director, Orthopedics, Children’s Hospital and professor, The Medical College of Wisconsin. “The EOS scanner will provide a much better image with 3-D capability and greatly decrease the radiation risk, in less time with less discomfort for our patients.” Variety’s vision and support will move the Variety Orthopedic Clinic one step closer to becoming a National Center of Excellence in spine care. “The EOS scanner can be used for so many purposes,” said Gerise LaSpisa, Variety’s executive director. “It will help physicians to better diagnose and determine treatment. These kids already face tremendous challenges. This equipment will make things better and safer for them.” $5,000 – $9,999.99 Anonymous (1) A.O. Smith Foundation, Inc.

Their answer: helping kids succeed in school so they have a better chance of succeeding in life. Fewer than half of the low-income and minority children in Dane County have the skills they need to successfully start kindergarten. Knowing that, CUNA Mutual’s employee philanthropy team spent nearly a year researching the best way to reach preschool children and their families in Madison’s poorest neighborhoods.

Pleased with the results, the foundation has budgeted an additional $185,000 for 2010. The KinderReady campaign was launched in February 2007 and reached 320 children in its first year alone. It includes a series of parenting workshops, home visits from bilingual social workers and education specialists, and opportunities for preschool-age children to learn through structured play. All these measures help young children and their families prepare for kindergarten. “We know KinderReady and Children’s Service Society are having a positive impact on the community,” Goldberg said. “We measure outcomes and provide updates to our employees.

In 2005, the company launched an annual golf event, the EMTEQ Charity Golf Outing. In its first year, it raised more than $4,600 for Children’s Hospital and Health System’s Child Abuse Prevention Fund. In just a few short years, the event has grown in popularity and blossomed into a week’s worth of activities. Vendors, customers and other business partners participate, along with the company’s employees and their families. As a result, EMTEQ’s efforts produced a $92,000 gift for the Child Abuse Prevention Fund in 2009. In total, the event has raised $277,000. “Giving back while engaging our employees is important to us,” said Jerry Jendusa, EMTEQ’s founder and CEO. “It’s part of what we do that makes EMTEQ a great place to work. We chose to support Children’s because we’re a young company. Our employees have young children. We’ve all heard the wonderful stories about what Children’s does for kids. We chose the CAP Fund in particular because we wanted to support The Child Abuse Prevention Fund is a special fundraising initiative of Children's Hospital and Health System. Since 1988, the organization has distributed more than $9.2 million to support community-based child abuse prevention initiatives throughout Wisconsin.
