What is the Children's Miracle Network?
Children's Miracle Network is the alliance of premier children's hospitals. Every year, Children's Miracle Network hospitals treat 17 million children for every disease and injury imaginable. Children's Miracle Network hospitals impact the lives of more children than any other children's organization in the world. Children's hospitals provide state-of-the-art care, life-saving research and preventative education for children 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. There is a Children's Miracle Network hospital dedicated to serving children in every community across the United States and Canada. These hospitals are committed to providing the best care for children when they need it. Your support of Children's Miracle Network helps ensure that children have the specialized care they need and deserve.
What if I want to donate to a different hospital?
Donating to the Children's Miracle Network affiliated hospital in your area is the best way to help the children in your community. Your affiliated hospital is statistically responsible for treating the majority of children from your vicinity with any serious medical conditions. Donating to a different hospital is not possible administratively and would prevent us from running this event on a national scale.
Do I pay for the materials to be made? Or do I get reimbursed?
You will need to set up a separate checking account for depositing donations. Expenses for the event can be paid from that account and you will send the remaining balance to the Children's Miracle Network as your donation. It is always a good idea to check with an accountant or tax professional to make certain that you follow these steps properly for your area.
How many schools are participating?
This is the first year this event will be held on a national level, so exact numbers are not yet available. However, we are anticipating hundreds of school across the country to be involved.
