McLeod Children’s Hospital is one of 170 children’s hospitals in North America that comprise the Children’s Miracle Network (CMN). CMN, a non-profit organization, is dedicated to helping children by raising funds and awareness for its members. Each year, McLeod Children's Hospital hosts the CMN Celebration Broadcast, which celebrates the successes achieved at McLeod Children's Hospital. These victories are made possible by families who give love and hope, McLeod physicians, nurses and ancillary staff who provide excellent care and treatment, and donors at every level who make charity care and vital equipment purchases possible.
The broadcast also recognizes the support of local groups and organizations as well as national corporate sponsors who work year round for the children treated at McLeod Children’s Hospital.
Four outstanding 2008 McLeod Miracle Children have been selected to represent the amazing spirit that is so evident in children who overcome physical and emotional challenges -- at times greater than many adults ever face.
