Dedicated to the mission of providing the best possible care and services for all children who come to us because of sickness and injury.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
For more than six decades, Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters (CHKD) has been the only facility of its kind in Virginia, serving the medical and surgical needs of children throughout the state. Its primary service area encompasses greater Hampton Roads, the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and northeastern North Carolina, a region that is home to approximately 418,000 people under the age of 21. CHKD was established as an 88-bed, not-for-profit hospital in 1961 by The King's Daughters, a women's service organization dedicated to the health and well-being of the community's indigent children. The hospital has always upheld the charitable mission of its founders, and in FY25, 56.1 percent of its inpatient days were covered by Medicaid. Over the past 60 years, CHKD's hospital has grown into an extensive pediatric health care system that offers 266 inpatient beds. Two hundred and six of those beds are in CHKD's acute care facility and sixty are in Children's Pavilion, the organization's new mental health tower. CHKD Health System also offers a variety of outpatient pediatric services at CHKD, Children's Pavilion, and multi-service CHKD Health Centers in Virginia Beach, Newport…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $805M to $1.0B (+24%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 1% · 2018 0% · 2019 0% · 2020 2% · 2021 4% · 2022 2% · 2023 2% · 2024 1% · 2025 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
2% of Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (1% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 43 funders to 84 funders, grant income rose $1.6M → $5.7M.
23 of 172 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 17% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $153M from 13 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Children's Health Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters raised.
From the IRS filings of Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 172 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 20% of grant income, and it takes 7 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 7 funders to its left
48% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 10% · 2018 17% · 2019 48% · 2020 40% · 2021 22% · 2022 19% · 2023 20% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
48% of Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 59% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year.

Where its funders are
74% of Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters's grant income comes from Virginia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5.2M arriving through sponsors registered in 18 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
