About the Pediatric AIDS Benefit Concert (PABC)
Celebrating 32 Years!
Since 1993, PABC has been committed to fundraising for the children and families affected by pediatric AIDS. In that time, PABC has raised over $650,000 for The Dorothy Mann Center for Pediatric and Adolescent HIV at St. Christopher's Hospital for Children.
The Dorothy Mann Center for Pediatric & Adolescent HIV
The HIV/AIDS program at St. Christopher’s Hospital is one of the largest in the nation, caring for children living with HIV/AIDS. Contributions to the auction aid in providing the highest level of care and comfort for these children and their families, which include financing dietitians, child-life specialists, and tutors, providing an opportunity for many children to attend summer camp, and offering emergency financial support for families. This support may include housing and transportation and although we wish it were otherwise, the cost of a proper funeral for a child. The funds raised through PABC support these essential services.
