Funding a healthy future for every child

Old Hospital

The Turner Cook Society represents what is foundational to Cook Children’s Health Care System: a sense of dedication, a passion to fulfill our Promise and a commitment to philanthropy. Donors like you want to make a lasting impact on your community. When you choose to give to the Turner Cook Society, you can be confident that you are doing so in a way that is best for you and your family.

Our co-founders, Mrs. Ida L. Turner and Mrs. Missouri Matilda Nail Cook, serve as leading examples of great visionaries that came together to create the institution that has transformed the health of our children for more than 100 years. By honoring the legacies of both Turner and Cook, we provide the opportunity for donors like you to be remembered in perpetuity.

We are looking to our faithful supporters like you for a new generation of legacy donors who believe in the future of our organization. Knowing that every child’s life is sacred, together we can fulfill the Promise of Cook Children’s to improve the well-being of every child.

Today, I hope that you will begin to imagine the impact that you could make on our community by leaving a lasting legacy to Cook Children’s. Planned giving is a personal process and is completely customizable to your personal and philanthropic goals. We’re here to help share how you can do more good than you ever believed.
