Every person and service at The University of Kansas Health System positively impacts the care our community receives. However, we have identified certain areas where investments are needed to make greater medical advances or to have outsized impacts on patient care. While you can always designate your gift to any service or specialty, we greatly appreciate your support in the following areas.

  • The University of Kansas Cancer Center is on an urgent journey to break the devastating grip of cancer on our region and the world.
