Kohl’s donates $1.5 million to Children’s Hospital

Kohl’s Department Stores today announced a $1.5 million donation to Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin from Kohl’s Cares, the company’s philanthropic platform, to fund the Kohl’s Cares Grow Safe & Healthy program.

 
The program is designed to make Wisconsin kids and families aware of safety risks in and out of their homes, and the necessary steps to help avoid injury. The gift represents the largest corporate donation to Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin this year. 

Injury is the leading cause of death for children ages one to 14 in the United States and in Wisconsin.
