Wauwatosa, Wis.-based Children's Hospital of Wisconsin has received a $1.5 million gift from Hal Leonard Corp. CEO Keith Mardak and his wife, Mary Vandenberg, to establish an endowed chair, according to the Milwaukee Biz Times.
Endowed chairs, which are established with a minimum gift of $1.5 million, help attract talent to the hospital. Children's has 25 endowed chairs.
"Endowed chairs ensure that various doctors make Children’s their home," Mr. Mardak said, according to the Biz Times. "Hopefully this [gift] will do a lot of good for the children that go through Children's Hospital."
Hal Leonard is a music publishing and distribution company based in Milwaukee.
