Free Parking Day

Free Parking Day is an annual event designed to serve families facing treatment or a stay at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. Our goal is to support and celebrate the strength and bravery of these families as they fight for hope.

On Free Parking Day, every car that comes through the parking decks at the Egleston or Scottish Rite campuses is greeted with the simple gesture of free parking and the lasting reminder that they are not alone. While the event only lasts a day, we’ve had many people comment on how the simple gift of free parking made a lasting impact.

“Thank you. We had just gotten pretty devastating news about our daughter. This was such a nice surprise as we left. It meant a lot. I just wanted you to know that.”

“Something so small but meant so very much to us that day as we left.”

“My daughter and I were at Scottish Rite for some medical testing yesterday. What a treat to see your volunteers at the parking garage exit. Gave us bottled water and lollipops. And paid for parking! Such a small gesture but it has a big impact! Thank you for being there spreading joy. What a great idea!”

“We go to Egleston every third Thursday for my son to receive IVIG infusions. The free parking made my day! Thanks and I am excited to hear about your organization.”

“Thank you so much for the surprise today. We had a long day and hard past few days since my daughter was injured and had surgery. It was a wonderful surprise!”
