The donation will fund advanced medical equipment for the hospital’s rehabilitation program, enhancing the hospital’s ability to provide cutting-edge therapies and support for children recovering from injuries, illnesses, and surgeries.

The announcement was made during a special ceremony near the hospital’s lobby, where the space was officially renamed the H-E-B Lobby in recognition of the company’s generosity.
