From the world-class hospitals of Raleigh and Durham to the university corridors of Chapel Hill, North Carolina’s Research Triangle is known for its innovation, compassion, and leadership in healthcare. Now, it’s also becoming a powerful force for global pediatric healing.
World Pediatrics exists to heal more children, in less time, by transforming access to advanced medical care. And the Triangle is helping make that mission possible—one partnership, one volunteer, and one child at a time.
Where Excellence Meets Purpose
The Triangle is home to some of the most respected medical institutions in the country along with nationally recognized hospitals and pediatric specialists. But what makes this region truly extraordinary is how often excellence is paired with action.
Here, pediatric professionals aren’t just advancing care locally. Many are stepping forward to lend their expertise to children who have no access to the care they need—traveling abroad, treating urgent cases, and helping World Pediatrics build sustainable healthcare solutions across Latin America and the Caribbean—and beyond.
This is what shoulder-to-shoulder impact looks like: where talent, purpose, and generosity intersect to create lasting change.
A Community That Puts Kids First
Since launching our chapter in North Carolina, we’ve been moved by the support we’ve received across the Triangle. From medical volunteers and academic leaders to philanthropic families and mission-minded companies, this region shows up.
Whether supporting a traveling team, funding a child’s life-saving treatment, or raising awareness for equitable healthcare access, the Triangle community has proven time and again that it leads with both head and heart.
The value of kids first lives here—and it’s changing the lives of children across Latin America and the Caribbean—and beyond.
From the Triangle to the World
Support from the Triangle isn’t confined to North Carolina. It reaches across borders—into operating rooms in St. Vincent, orthopedic clinics in Honduras, neonatal units in Guatemala, and so many more communities where care is urgently needed.
When someone in this region gives, volunteers, or partners with World Pediatrics, they’re fueling a ripple effect of healing, training, and transformation across Latin America and the Caribbean—and beyond.
Every action taken here helps rewrite what’s possible in pediatric healthcare—and the impact is just beginning.
