May is for Miracles

May is here, and it's time to celebrate the magic of spring! As flowers bloom and the weather warms up, we're reminded that anything can happen - including miracles. Children’s Miracle Network at Medical Center Health System (MCHS0 is Your One Source for Miracles!

The Children's Miracle Network (CMN) is a non-profit organization that raises funds for children's hospitals and medical research. Since its founding in 1983, CMN has raised more than $7 billion dollars to support programs and services at 170 children's hospitals across the United States and Canada.*

Here are a few key reasons why the Children's Miracle Network is important:

Provides critical support to children's hospitals: CMN funds help children's hospitals provide essential services such as research, equipment, and facilities. This support can be lifesaving for children with serious illnesses and injuries.*

Brings awareness to children's health issues: The Children's Miracle Network helps to raise awareness about the importance of children's health and the challenges faced by families with sick or injured children. By sharing stories of children who have overcome illness or injury, CMN inspires others to get involved and make a difference.*

Supports medical research: CMN funds are used to support research into the causes and treatments of childhood illnesses and injuries. This research can help to improve outcomes for children and save lives.*

When you donate to CMN at MCHS, 100 percent of the proceeds stay local. That means every dollar raised stays in your community to help fund the purchase of lifesaving medical equipment, educational programs for families and medical staff, and research initiatives — all aimed at saving and improving the lives of children treated right here in the Permian Basin.

Overall, the Children's Miracle Network plays an important role in supporting children's health and well-being. Its work helps to provide critical care and support to children and families in need, while also advancing research and raising awareness about important health issues.*

May is for miracles. Miracles don’t have to be huge - they can be small actions and moments that bring hope and joy into our lives. Embrace the idea that anything is possible, even when it seems impossible, because with faith and perseverance you can create your own miracles and make May a wonderful time of year.
