Children's Miracle Network

When your child has a serious health issue, it becomes the center of your world. You want to know your child is getting focused attention and the latest treatments and support.

At Helen DeVos Children's Hospital, we fight for every child. With 350+ pediatric specialists and subspecialists, 10 Years of US News and Report national rankings and innovations that draw patients from all over the world, we're driven to replace fear with hope, and doubt with answers. We believe in the possibility of every child's future.

Since 1990, HDVCH has been a Children’s Miracle Network member hospital. Thanks to our Dance Marathon and Extra Life programs, Radiothon event and Corporate Partners, we have raised over $32 million in total for the kids and families that rely on Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital for exceptional care. Funds raised stay local and sustain more than 20 programs and services that rely on philanthropy to continue.

One hundred percent of your donation to HDVCH through our CMN partnerships stays local and supports the Annual Fund, sustaining over 20 programs that rely on philanthropic funding. These programs include the Center for Child Protection, NICU Family Support, and Child and Family life and would not be available for our patients and their families without your support. Here are a few examples of what your donations to the Annual Fund help support:

$10 - Meal Voucher: Allows parents to get a meal/snack during their child’s stay. While the child’s food cost is covered by insurance, the parents are not.

$15 - NICU Graduation: Celebratory book, toy or blanket and gift box to celebrate babies who are graduating (leaving) the NICU.

$25 - Nerf Guns: Used for fun play and distraction for patients and families during long hospital stays.

$60 - Universal Cell Phone Chargers: Provided to families who need them while in the hospital. When you forget your charger, the last thing you want to worry about is trying to find a way to charge your device.
