ProMedica has officially renamed its children's hospital in Toledo, Ohio, after philanthropist Russell Ebeid, according to local news station NBC 24.
Mr. Ebeid, who died in 2017, donated $1.5 million to start the Ebeid Institute in 2015 and $28.5 million toward the Ebeid Neighborhood Promise in 2017. The institute and promise initiative aim to address the socioeconomic factors that can contribute to a child's health.
The Russell J. Ebeid Children's Hospital now has a sign bearing the new name on the facility.
