What is Children’s Miracle Network? Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping hospitalized kids by raising funds and awareness for 170 children’s hospitals. The hospitals affiliated with CMN help 17 million kids each year-kids with cancer, birth defects, AIDS, accident trauma, and every healthcare issue imaginable. Arkansas Children's Hospital has been associated with CMN from CMN’s inception in 1983. CMN is a year-round campaign to raise money and awareness for children’s hospitals. Throughout the year, companies, community groups and individuals contribute to the campaign – raising money through special events and sales promotions. Our affiliation with Children’s Miracle Network gives the hospital access to the support and fundraising efforts of many sponsors recruited on the national level by Children’s Miracle Network. National sponsors such as Wal-Mart, SAM’S CLUB, Log A Load For Kids, Dairy Queen, RE/MAX and Credit Unions 4 Kids bring creativity and commitment to the cause. Since 1983, more than $2.7 billion has been raised for children’s health care through CMN. All money benefits the community’s local CMN hospital. Money raised in Arkansas, northern Louisiana, eastern Texas and eastern Oklahoma benefits Arkansas Children’s Hospital. Click here for a list of national sponsors in the ACH area. Making a Difference at Arkansas Children's Hospital: How CMN Funds are Used Through Children’s Miracle Network, you can make a difference in the lives of children. You can involve your community, organization or business in an effort that builds our future. Money from CMN projects has helped to fund: Child Life and Education Department. The Child Life and Education Department addresses the emotional, social, educational and recreational needs of hospitalized children and adolescents. As recognized by the American Academy of Pediatrics, Child Life programs utilize developmentally appropriate activities to minimize stress and anxiety and to foster positive feelings about health care. Dental Clinic. This hospital-based pediatric dental clinic provides comprehensive care for infants, children and young adolescents with significant medical and/or developmental problems. Patient Care Fund. The Patient Care Fund at Arkansas Children's Hospital is overseen by a committee of physicians and administrators who designate funds to the patient care areas of the hospital with the greatest need. The committee may choose to fund a piece of equipment, service or other project within the hospital that advances the care of children. What better way to invest a gift than in the hands of those who care for children everyday. Angel One. The hospital’s transport system includes three ambulances, two helicopters and an airplane. Angel One brings more than 1,800 ill and injured children to ACH each year. Log A Load Chair for Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery. This endowed
chair provides for salary and discretionary program funding for a top physician
in the field of pediatric cardiovascular surgery. Because of the Log A Load
chair, ACH has strengthened recruiting power to entice the best physicians to
our hospital. Support CMN National Sponsors in your community and make a difference for the children at ACH. For more information on Children’s Miracle Network, call Arkansas Children's
