The group, also known as “The Fifty”, has a mission to harness the energy, enthusiasm and experience of 50 driven community leaders as the next generation of supporters of Phoenix Children’s Hospital, according to a press release.
“We are passionate about helping Phoenix Children’s,” said Barry Goodrich, current president of The PCH50, in a prepared statement.
