government relations, and injury prevention programs of the Greenville Hospital
System Children’s Hospital. This responsibility is met through these avenues:

to children ages birth to 14 in Greenville, Pickens and Oconee Counties. Safe
Kids Upstate is headquartered in Greenville with a satellite office in Seneca,
SC.
- Partnerships with community agencies to benefit children’s health and well-being
including hydration, fitness, prevention of childhood obesity and abuse.
- The GHS Children’s Hospital Development Council, which is composed of community
leaders serving as advocates to support fund raising, public awareness, injury
prevention, grassroots government relations activities, and volunteer recruitment
and employee recognition activities for Children’s Hospital.
