A Legacy of Caring
John P. Wilson was a pioneering attorney in Chicago when the city was young. Mr. Wilson was a supporter and volunteer leader at the hospital. Upon his death, he provided for the hospital through his estate with a challenge grant, which if not met would divert most of the bequest to his children. It was Mr. Wilson's children who provided the final funds to meet the challenge, thereby establishing a significant precedent of family and individual generosity through estate planning.
Over a century after John P. Wilson gave the first legacy gift to support the hospital, estate gifts from generous individuals continue to be a key source of support for the care provided to children and families. Representing a legacy of hope and healing, legacy gifts enable Lurie Children's to deliver outstanding care to every child who needs it and to create advances in pediatric medicine and science that benefit children in Chicago and beyond.
