Charles C. Gates Society
Established in 2006, the Charles C. Gates Society recognizes donors who have generously contributed $1 million or more to Children’s Hospital Colorado, during their lifetimes or through their estates.
Charles C. Gates was honored as a Westerner, an accomplished business leader, a man of vision, and a generous philanthropist. Gates Society donors have made lasting, invaluable investments that have moved Children’s Colorado forward to become better, stronger and more effective in caring for children.
