Children's Miracle Network—the alliance of premier hospitals for children—is a non-profit organization dedicated to saving and improving the lives of children by raising funds for children’s hospitals across North America. Each year the 170 Children's Miracle Network hospitals provide the finest medical care, life-saving research, and preventive education to help millions of kids overcome diseases and injuries of every kind.
All funds raised in El Paso stay in El Paso to help critically ill and injured children ages birth-18 years at University Medical Center, the community's safety-net hospital. In early 2012, all pediatric care will move from UMC to the new El Paso Children's Hospital, which then becomes the Children's Miracle Network hospital for the El Paso region. |
