GIVING AND LIVING: Filling that 'enormous need'

The Helppie Institute for Child Health Advocacy - an arm of the Helppie Family Charitable Foundation - is featured as part of the "Giving and Living" stories in today's Detroit Free Press. The Helppie Institute for Child Health Advocacy supports specialized programs at Children's Hospital of Michigan. In 1997, the institute gave $5 million to the hospital and in February established the Helppie Endowed Professor of Pediatrics with a $750,000 gift to Wayne State University. The recipient, Dr. Vincent Palusci, is director of the hospital's new Child Protection Center, which evaluates kids for signs of abuse or neglect.
