The Storybook Ball — MassGeneral Hospital for Children (MGHfC)

Oct 23, 2020

On October 17, Kim and James made a special virtual appearance at Boston’s MassGeneral Hospital for Children (MGHfC) “Storybook Ball” gala. The theme of the 21st annual event was based on Marcus Pfister’s children’s classic, The Rainbow Fish. The event raised more than $1.5 million for pediatric care.

The Taylors have deep ties to MassGeneral Hospital. James was born there and his father, Isaac, completed his residency in internal medicine, served as chief resident and conducted research at the MGH. Kim has served on the board of the MassGeneral Hospital for Children for the past five years.

Click below to watch now, and visit StorybookBall.org to learn more — if you would like to contribute, all donations received this week will be matched, up to $250,000.
