马萨诸塞州萨福克县波士顿市凯尔特人队10月29日宣布向波士顿儿童医院捐赠超2亿美元创纪录
波士顿凯尔特人队于10月29日宣布，球队与波士顿凯尔特人三叶草基金会及球队所有权集团将向波士顿儿童医院捐赠超过2亿美元，创下该医院收到的捐赠纪录。
医院方面表示，这笔捐赠将用于多个儿童医疗与研究重点项目，包括建设全美一流的儿童心理健康设施、资助儿科护士的高级培训、推动儿童疾病新疗法的研究，以及扩大以家庭为中心的服务项目。波士顿儿童医院首席执行官凯文·丘奇韦尔博士表示，捐赠的意义最终不在于创纪录的金额，而在于它将挽救的生命。凯尔特人队董事会主席比尔·奇泽姆表示，凯尔特人队的传统不仅体现在球场上，投资下一代就是球队的承诺。球队还将在10月30日晚主场对阵芝加哥公牛队的比赛中向波士顿儿童医院致敬，比赛中将安排多个环节，庆祝医院的患者、家属和工作人员。这笔捐赠是波士顿体育界与儿童医疗机构之间规模最大的一次合作之一。
Boston Celtics Announce Record Donation of More Than $200 Million to Boston Children's Hospital on October 29
The Boston Celtics announced on October 29 that the team, together with the Boston Celtics Shamrock Foundation and the team's ownership group, will donate more than 200 million dollars to Boston Children's Hospital, a record gift for the hospital. The hospital said the donation will support several pediatric care and research priorities, including building a premier pediatric mental health facility, funding advanced training for pediatric nurses, advancing research into new therapies for childhood diseases, and expanding family-centered programs.
Boston Children's Hospital CEO Dr. Kevin Churchwell said the gift's significance will ultimately be measured not by the record it sets but by the lives it will save. Celtics chairman Bill Chisholm said the Celtics' legacy is defined by more than what happens on the court and that investing in the next generation is the team's commitment. The team will also honor Boston Children's Hospital during its home game against the Chicago Bulls on the night of October 30.
