What do my race fees support?

In its most recent accomplishment, the Dina LaVigna Breath of Life Fund pledged $750,000 to Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA (Dina’s alma mater) to improve the facilities in which children spend hours a day receiving the treatment they need. The result is Dina’s Beach, a 'child friendly' setting that embraces a 'beach' theme (including the construction of a boat that serves as the nursing station). The dedication and opening of Dina’s Beach occurred on December 6, 2007. Click here to see photos from the ribbon cutting and dedication ceremony.

Dina’s Beach is now a critical component of what is the most outstanding PI research, treatment and outreach diagnostic center in the world sponsored by the Jeffrey Modell Foundation (JMF). The Dina LaVigna Breath of Life Fund intends to continue its financial support of the state of the art facility. This will be to meet our financial pledges to UCLA for Dina’s Beach, to finish the work that still needs to be done there, and to make sure that it remains the world standard for providing the best environment possible for those children who need to spend hours receiving necessary treatment. We are also pursuing a number of minor projects in other hospitals also with the aim of making their treatment sessions more bearable. One hope is that in a small way, we can improve the infusion environment at Children’s Hospital, Los Angeles (Dina received excellent care there when she was a child), and with other University Hospitals affiliated with JMF.

Proceeds from this charity event will go towards support of these goals.
