On Wednesday, April 22, Peggy and Carl Sewell and Mary and David Wolff hosted guests at Sewell Cadillac to learn more about Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus.

Nearly 50 attendees heard from the hosts as well as Chanda Cashen Chacón, president of Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus, and Dr. Jeanine Graf, chief medical officer of Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus, regarding the hospital’s expansion plans. Included in the expansion projects is an 8-bed special isolation unit, specifically designed for children with highly contagious infectious diseases, such as pandemic influenza, enterovirus D68, Ebola, and many others.

During his remarks, David Wolff announced a generous $100,000 gift to Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus. The hospital, Houston’s first community hospital designed exclusively for children, was created to respond to the growing need for expert pediatric health care in West Houston, one of the city’s most rapidly expanding communities. Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus offers expert care in a location that is convenient and accessible for area families.
