Bringing Warmth and Comfort to Pediatric Patients: A Special Blanket-Making Day

Last month, we had the incredible opportunity to bring together volunteers from our amazing Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) fundraising partners for a heartwarming blanket-making event! 

Thanks to a generous grant from Aflac, we were able to provide all the materials needed to create cozy, colorful blankets for pediatric proton therapy patients at the University of Kansas Medical Center.

Proton therapy treatments can be lengthy and often take place in cool rooms, making comfort a top priority. Each handmade blanket offers more than just warmth—it brings a sense of security, care, and a little extra joy to children undergoing treatment.

We are so grateful to everyone who joined us and helped make this day truly meaningful. Your time, creativity, and compassion will make a real difference.

Together, we’re proving that small acts of kindness can have a big impact.


Warm Hugs for the Holidays: Bringing Comfort to Kids at KU Medical Center

This holiday season, we’re celebrating the incredible generosity of Westlake Ace Hardware and Warmies USA, who teamed up to bring Warm Hugs to children at the University of Kansas Medical Center. 

Warmies are soft, microwavable plush animals that provide soothing warmth, calming aromas, and a sense of companionship — something truly special for kids spending time in the hospital during the holidays. 

These thoughtful gifts do more than comfort; they bring smiles, reduce stress, and remind children that they are cared for by an entire community.

We are so grateful for partners like Westlake Ace Hardware and Warmies USA for helping spread joy when kids need it most. 


Gratitude in Action: Celebrating Our CMN Difference-Makers

As we embrace this season of giving thanks, we’re reminded of the incredible people who make Children’s Miracle Network a true network of hope and healing.

From our dedicated nurses and doctors to hospital staff, Miracle Families, and our amazing fundraising partners—you each represent a vital piece of the CMN puzzle. Together, you create miracles every single day.

We couldn’t do what we do without YOU, and today we want to say how deeply grateful we are for your compassion, commitment, and unwavering support.

Thank you for helping us change kids’ health and change the future.
