We are proud to announce the opening of Sutter’s very first Pediatric Cardiovasular Intensive Care Unit- a space dedicated to providing advanced, compassionate care for children with complex heart conditions.
This milestone reflects our commitment to bringing specialized, family-centered cardiac care closer to home.
This ribbon cutting is more than a ceremony- it’s a symbol of home, innovation and brighter futures for children and families that we serve.

Incredible things happen when business leaders take action. Since 2015, the L5 Real Estate Investments DCA Partners Capital Cup has raised over $18 million for 92 charities, and our CFO Curtis Kaufman has proudly represented Angels for Hearts. This year, Curt returns to the course for his 8th tournament, helping provide vital funds for programs that bring joy and comfort to children facing congenital heart defects. Join us in supporting Curt, heart kids, and a community that genuinely cares. 💙

Aubri was a rockstar through her long PICU admission while recovering from heart surgery. So grateful to the physical therapists for their use of OshKosh B'gosh overalls to help Aubri’s mom walk her safely through the halls. Aubri was a bright light in the PICU over the past month.
Thank you also to Angels for Hearts and Brave Gowns for your continued support of our cardiac families.

“I am so grateful to be part of Sutter’s Pediatric Cardiovascular ICU! Every day I get to witness the amazing strength and resilience of our patients and their families, while supporting them on their medical journey. I find it incredibly rewarding to be a member of this multidisciplinary team as we collectively work to provide the best care possible for our little Heart Warriors!”
