The $20 million pledge will support design, ongoing construction and purchase of equipment for the $1.2 billion flagship, which opened to patients in December. The south tower, which will now be named the Tad and Dianne Taube Pavilion, houses operating rooms, imaging suites and intensive care units.
The couple’s latest pledge brings their total giving to Lucile Packard Children’s to more than $35 million.
“We planned every detail in our new hospital to provide the best care for children,” said Dennis Lund, MD, interim president, CEO and CMO, of Lucile Packard Children’s and Stanford (Calif.) Children’s Health. “We are honored that Tad and Dianne Taube chose to make a difference in the lives of our patients and families through their visionary investments.”
