  • The prestigious Founders Award was presented to Michael Mischler, acknowledging his exceptional dedication and impact on children's lives from the organization's inception.

CMN Hospitals unveiled its new brand to the network to evolve and meet the changing needs of children’s healthcare, with plans to launch in 2026.

"Our brand is who we are, how we define ourselves, and how we talk about ourselves – it’s how we differentiate ourselves from others,” continued Daily. “We are the only children’s healthcare charity that champions the health of all kids by amplifying the impact we can make and closing funding gaps through innovative fundraising solutions."

We’re so grateful for our partners and hospitals who strive every day to make difference in children’s healthcare.”

About Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals:

Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals was founded more than 40 years ago with the vision to Change Kids’ Health, Change the Future. We’ve raised over $9 billion for 170 children’s hospitals by empowering and engaging with local communities and businesses – and we’re not done yet. All donations benefit local member hospitals to fund what’s needed most, like critical life-saving treatments and healthcare services, innovative research, vital pediatric medical equipment, child life services that put kids’ and families’ minds at ease during difficult hospital stays, and financial assistance for families who could not otherwise afford these health services.

Together, we can change kids’ health. Together, we can change the future. To learn about Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and your local member children’s hospital, visit cmnhospitals.org.
