St. Petersburg, FL – December 21, 2015 – All Children’s Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine received more than $200,000 from Jabil this year to help children with brain disorders. As one of All Children’s Hospital’s largest donors, Jabil employees have now raised more than $1 million for the hospital since 1985. The latest donation will help the hospital’s recently established Johns Hopkins All Children’s Institute for Brain Protection Sciences which includes neuroscience programs such as neurology, neurosurgery, epileptology, neuro-oncology, neuroradiology, behavioral medicine, rehabilitative medicine, neuropathology, neuropsychiatry, psychiatry and neuropsychology.
“Jabil has been a great example of a corporate philanthropic partner,” said Jenine Rabin, executive vice president of the All Children’s Hospital Foundation. “Their employees always go above and beyond when it comes to fundraising efforts and their support truly makes a difference in helping us provide the best care for children in the Tampa Bay area and beyond.”
Throughout the past year, Jabil employees held several fundraisers for the hospital including a bike rodeo and family safety event where they collected bikes and helmets for needy children in the community. Jabil also donated Halloween costumes in 2015, supported the hospital’s autism center and is a corporate sponsor of the All Children’s Sensitive Santa Holiday party for children with autism spectrum disorder.
“We are passionate about our ongoing relationship with All Children’s Hospital,” said Jabil’s CEO Mark Mondello. “Our relationship with the hospital has continued to grow over the years and we are proud to be able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with All Children’s in support of the children.”
