Doctors at the University of Minnesota’s children’s hospital traded in their white coats for ones embroidered with a new name.
With its $25 million donation, the Minnesota Masonic Charities became the University’s largest donor, and in honor of the gift, the campus’s pediatric hospital was renamed Tuesday as the University of Minnesota Masonic Children’s Hospital.
The donation will primarily go toward finding cures and treatments for childhood diseases, said Eric Neetenbeek, Minnesota Masonic Charities president and CEO.
