ONE MORE TIME FOR K-O-B-Y! 🎉❤️🙌🏾

Getting the call that your child has cancer is a feeling no parent should ever experience. Not knowing the outcome was scary, but for 142 days, Koby showed strength, courage, intelligence, and positivity, even on the hardest days. 🥹 I’m SO proud of my son and all he has overcome! I can’t wait to watch him start his next chapter at college next fall and pursue his dream of becoming a successful chef! 🧑‍🍳

To the entire UNC staff, THANK YOU for the genuine love, care, and positivity you showed Koby. You became part of our tribe, and we will forever be grateful! 💙🤍 (And yes, I’m officially a UNC fan now! 🤣🫣)

To our family and friends, thank you for every prayer, call, text, hospital visit, gift, and act of love. We appreciate you more than words can say! 🙏🏾❤️ Thank you Kobys’ dad (Jay) for never leaving his side. Very grateful.

We're grateful that the rivalry between @dukefootball and @uncfootball doesn't extend to pediatric care. Thank you to both teams for using our challenge coin to kick off the game last weekend and for recognizing Dr. Brad Marino, chair of pediatrics at Duke, Dr. Jeff Anderson, vice president of children’s health at UNC Health, and Noah and his mom, Amy, an NC Children’s patient family advisor.

Together, we're blending the blues and building a brighter future for North Carolina's kids. Best of luck to both teams this weekend!

Yesterday, we celebrated a $100 million grant from @dukeendowment to NC Children’s, alongside the families, partners and leaders helping bring specialized pediatric care closer to home. 💙🩵

Established in 1924 by industrialist and philanthropist James B. Duke, The Duke Endowment is a private foundation based in Charlotte, N.C. The Endowment shares a name with Duke University and Duke Energy, but all are separate organizations.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We hope you’ll join us in what comes next for North Carolina’s kids.

Today, @dukeendowment committed a $100 million grant to NC Children’s, our largest philanthropic commitment to date.

For more than a century, The Duke Endowment has carried forward James B. Duke’s vision, set forth in his Indenture of Trust, by investing in efforts that improve lives across the Carolinas through the well-being of children and families, higher education, a focus on rural communities and healthcare. This project brings all those priorities together.

Established in 1924 by industrialist and philanthropist James B. Duke, The Duke Endowment is a private foundation based in Charlotte, N.C. The Endowment shares a name with Duke University and Duke Energy, but all are separate organizations.

NC Children’s will develop specialized programs for complex conditions like childhood cancer and rare genetic disorders, support clinicians caring for kids across the region, and train the next generation of pediatric providers. Groundbreaking on the campus is planned for 2027.

We’re grateful to The Duke Endowment for leading the way, and we hope others will join them in investing in the health of North Carolina’s kids. Learn more at the link in bio.

At Go2Crew, giving back to our community is at the heart of what we do! 🩷

What a wonderful evening supporting a program that makes such a meaningful difference in the lives of children and their families.

We’re grateful to be a small part of a community that comes together for such an important cause! 🩷

Paxton got to experience the excitement from the Carolina sideline and cheer on the team during its game against ETSU.

We’re glad to share a glimpse of this memorable experience.

At "Cardboard City," life-size room mockups create opportunities for patient families and clinical and support services teams to stand side by side in shaping the future of children's healthcare in North Carolina.

Every perspective matters as we work together to make NC Children's the best place to receive care, provide care, and support children and families.
