Emerging Leaders for Children's Healthcare of Atlanta

About Us

We are a group of volunteer leaders with a passion for bringing awareness to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta through fundraising, advocacy and volunteering.

Under the oversight of the Children’s Foundation Board of Trustees, ELC educates members about Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and its vision for the future, in order to develop strong community ambassadors, fundraisers and future volunteer leaders. Regular business meetings, networking opportunities with Trustees and executives, volunteer engagement with patients, and member socials make for a meaningful ELC experience.

Hosted every spring, The Scrubs Party is ELC’s signature fundraising event. Beneficiaries are voted on by the group and supported through creative fundraising and advocacy initiatives throughout the year. To date, ELC has raised more than $3.1 million for Children’s programs such as the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center, the Robotics Center, the Child Protection Program, the Neurosciences Program, the Children’s Heart Research and Outcomes Center (HeRO) and, most recently, the Children’s Food Allergy Program. In addition, ELC helped launch the Children’s childhood obesity prevention campaign (Strong4Life) in metro Atlanta.
