The Harold and Kitty Schildkraut Memorial Endowment was established in 1989. Since its inception, the endowment has enabled the cardiology faculty of Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center to host distinguished cardiologists from around the world as visiting professors. The fund was established by the Schildkraut family through the Aurora Health Care Foundation in recognition of the compassionate care Harold received at Aurora St. Luke’s.  We are honored to continue this longstanding tradition of educational excellence and sincerely hope you will join us for this exceptional learning opportunity.
