Tomorrow's Children Endowment

TCE is an endowment fund that enables the AAP to move boldly forward on the pressing issues related to child health care and the quality of that care. We have the ability; we have the tools; and the TCE provides a guaranteed source of funding to make it all possible.  Your gift is a wise investment that stands forever as a statement of your commitment to children and the practice of pediatrics. 

Jay Berkelhamer, MD, FAAP

"As a career pediatrician and ongoing volunteer with the American Academy of Pediatrics, I see first-hand the impact of the AAP mission. I know that kids come first. And I share the belief that ALL kids deserve our best care and advocacy. For that reason, my wife Jackie and I have made the decision to include a gift to the AAP in our estate plan.  We see TCE as a powerful vehicle that helps ensure funding sustainability for child health programs into the future.”
