Donations at Work

Giving to the Local CMN Hospitals Program at Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital

The impact of your giving:

The cornerstone of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH) fundraising is and always has been supporting local children’s healthcare needs. 100% of all donations made to our local CMNH Program stay in our Central Coast community (Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito counties) and are used for:

  • Making More Miracles: A Special Program for Special Kids. The unique program provides medical needs grants to fund medically beneficial equipment and services for individual children throughout the Tri-County area. Examples of items recently funded include wheelchairs, hearing aids, cochlear implants, accessible bathroom remodels, mobility aids, art and equestrian therapies, and much more.
  • Pediatric Community Outreach including Days of Discovery (a special needs dive program at the Monterey Bay Aquarium), and support for the Miracle Mobile operated by Partnership For Children to transport local children with life-threatening illnesses to and from medical appointments in the Bay Area.
  • Newborn and Pediatric equipment and services at Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital, including support for our Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Pediatrics Unit, Pediatric Diabetes Clinic, and Pediatric needs within our Emergency Department.

    While a child is facing a serious illness, the last thing that their family should have to worry about is transportation to and from their medical appointments. In 2016, we joined with Partnership For Children to fully fund a Toyota Prius, affectionately dubbed the “Miracle Mobile,” including all expenses for a year, to help get these kids and their families safely where they need to go. The Miracle Mobile provides rides for children with serious illnesses in Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito Counties at no cost to the families and is operated by Partnership For Children.
