CAVU Programs
CAVU works closely with its partner institutions to select projects where we can have a significant impact on critical pediatric health needs, seeking intersections of dynamic leaders, innovative ideas, and strong, supportive institutions.
Our programs fall under two main initiatives: Healthy Weight and Healthy Minds. These focus areas were selected based on feedback from community health providers, who indicated that pediatric obesity and child mental health were areas of critical need and limited resources. We have also, on occasion, funded smaller one-time projects at health centers with whom we work, when there was a small amount of resources required to allow them to better serve their patients' needs.
In all of our program investments CAVU combines hands-on program support with funding, and focuses strongly on data collection and tracking of impacts, which ensures program sustainability to meet children's needs in the long-term.
