Shriners Hospitals for Children is a network of 22 pediatric non-profit hospitals across North America that provide specialty care at no charge to the patients and their families.
Headquartered in Tampa, Florida, the hospitals, known as "The World's Greatest Philanthropy," are owned and operated by the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine (Shriners). There is no requirement for religion, race, or relationship to a Shriner. Patients must be under the age of 18, and treatable.
