Foresters Champions Across America and Canada:
Ambassadors for Children's Hospitals
Foresters Champions Across America and Champions Across Canada
are Children's Miracle Network programs that honor remarkable
children who have triumphed despite severe medical challenges.
For their courage, tenacity and perseverance, the children on
these pages have been selected as ambassadors for the 17 million
kids treated each year at Children's Miracle Network children's
hospitals.
Spreading the Word: A Child From Every State and Province
At the invitation of The White House and Parliament Hill, these
young ambassadors will travel to Washington, DC and Ottawa March
21-23 to share the message that their lives-and the lives of millions
of children just like them-are better because of the tremendous
work of children's hospitals. They will also spread the word by
participating in the national television production of the Children's
Miracle Network Celebration at Walt Disney World.
Children's Miracle Network: The Finest Care for Kids
The very fact that these children are here to represent their
state in this national program is a testament to the importance
of children's hospitals. With the help of their Children's Miracle
Network hospitals, a toddler survived a deadly poisoning accident;
a preschooler is overcoming the daily challenges of muscular dystrophy;
and twin brothers who were born at just one pound each are thriving.
From pediatric cancer treatment and intensive care to walk-in
clinics and child safety programs, these children's hospitals
provide the specialized care for kids that cannot be found elsewhere.
Each year Children's Miracle Network hospitals treat millions
of children with diseases, injuries and birth defects of every
kind. To do so, these non-profit children's hospitals depend on
community support. To help or to learn more go to www.cmn.org.
