Thank you, east Texas!
23rd Annual Children’s Miracle Network Celebration Raises Over $600,000


East Texans opened their hearts and their wallets generously donating a total of $601,527 to the Children’s Miracle Network program that supports vital medical services provided by Trinity Mother Frances Hospitals and Clinics. Broadcast live on KYTX CBS-19 TV on June 5 and 6, the annual event raises needed funds for Children's Miracle Network (CMN) Hospitals across the U.S. One hundred percent of the funds raised for Children’s Miracle Network locally stay at Trinity Mother Frances to provide life-saving pediatric equipment and medical services to children in this area.

Mother Frances Hospital is one of approximately 170 hospitals throughout North America that provide care for 14 million children and benefit from the Children’s Miracle Network organization and is the designated hospital for northeast Texas.

Last year, the CMN Celebration generated $552,000 locally. Funds donated throughout the year and during the celebration buy life-saving equipment, and support special programs and educational materials for pediatric services offered through Trinity Mother Frances.

A community advisory committee, with representatives from area businesses that support the Children’s Miracle Network, allocates the funds for specific pediatric services.

“As a mother of three, I realize how important having the best health care available locally is for our family,” Celebration Chairman, Challi Korenek said. “Knowing that the CMN Celebration helps bring in new technology and equipment to Trinity Mother Frances makes it an honor to serve in this position.”

Celebration dollars raised also benefit the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Mother Frances Hospital-Tyler and the Trinity Mother Frances Pediatric Special Needs Clinic, which is the only site in the region serving families whose children have chronic and complex medical conditions.

For more information on other services provided by Trinity Mother Frances, or to make an online donation, visit www.tmfhc.org/cmnpledge.
