Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) has received a historic $125 million donation from Aileen and Brian Roberts and their family, marking the largest single gift in the institution’s 170-year history.

The funding will support the creation of Roberts Children’s Health, a new inpatient tower and hospital expansion set to open in 2028.

The planned facility, located on CHOP’s main campus on Civic Center Boulevard, will exceed 20 stories and significantly expand the hospital’s capacity. The project also includes modernization efforts for CHOP’s existing infrastructure.

“Roberts Children’s Health will greatly enhance the hospital experience for our patients and their families, equip our staff with the latest innovations, and revolutionize how we provide care,” said Madeline Bell, CHOP’s president and CEO.
