In 1922, the Shriners dedicated themselves to providing expert medical care for children without financial obligation to patients or their families.
Today, that philanthropic effort supports 22 Shriners Hospitals for Children across North America that provide specialized medical care for children with orthopaedic conditions, burns, spinal cord injuries and cleft lip and palate.
Many Shriners Hospitals for Children are also premier medical research centers and are affiliated with top academic medical institutions in North America.
