Fondazione dell'Ospedale Pediatrico Meyer ETS

The Meyer Pediatric Hospital Foundation was established on 14 July 2000 as an exclusive support to the communication, marketing and fundraising activities of the Meyer in Florence, a special hospital dedicated to the care and well-being of children and the promotion of health.

The Meyer IRCCS University Hospital (Institute for Hospitalization and Care of a Scientific Character) represents a health excellence and the Foundation supports it with support actions aimed at qualifying it more from a technical-scientific point of view and which help the reception activities of children and families in the hospital.

The Foundation contributed to the creation of the "New Meyer" in 2007 and is currently alongside the hospital by financing Meyer+ (the hospital's expansion project), welcoming families, scientific research, health excellence projects and the technological updating of the equipment, not least the game as a tool to support therapies and treatments.

Always on the side of the children.

This is the philosophy that guides us every day. Many reception projects, aimed at children and families, constitute an added value that integrates into the treatment process. All this allows young patients to play in a comfortable environment, full of colors and curiosities, to experience the multiple activities of the educational workshops in the toy library, to listen to music with their parents, to share time with the clowns in the ward and with friends on four legs of Pet-Therapy.
