Prime Therapeutics donates $25K to Children’s Minnesota’s Shine Bright for Kids campaign
Fundraising efforts support children battling cancer and blood disorders
For many families, receiving a pediatric cancer or blood disorder diagnosis can be devastating. One Minnesotan-based organization provides resources and support for patients who are navigating a complicated health journey, and it’s a mission that Prime Therapeutics (Prime) is honored to support.
In recognition of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and Sickle Cell Awareness Month in September, Prime and its employees donated $25,000 to Children’s Minnesota’s Give to Kids Day. The event, which took place on Sept. 12 this year, is part of the organization’s broader Shine Bright for Kids campaign. The fundraising effort supports Children’s Minnesota’s cancer and blood disorders program, which is the largest of its kind in the upper Midwest.
Prime began sponsoring the Shine Bright for Kids campaign through PrimeCares, our community giving program, in 2021. Since then, Prime and its employees have donated a total of $110,000 toward the initiative. According to Children’s Minnesota, the campaign aims to ensure that patients “have access to the latest treatments, research and innovations,” aligning with Prime's purpose to provide the kind of care they'd want for their loved ones.
“No child should ever have to experience a diagnosis like a blood disorder or cancer,” said Erin Feigal, senior vice president and chief human resources officer. “At Prime, we’re proud to help our charity partners work toward finding more effective treatments for these complex disorders.”
Children’s Minnesota is one of the largest not-for-profit pediatric health systems in the country and cares for more than 58% of children diagnosed with cancer or blood disorders in Minnesota, according to the organization. The organization is also one of Prime’s five charity partners and is committed to championing the health needs of children and families.
