Caring For Kids Results & Car Winner!

The results are in!  Our team members have wrapped up our annual Caring for Kids campaign, with results that are nothing short of amazing.

In a mere five weeks, we raised...

 

$421,645!

 

This total is the highest in the history of Caring for Kids, and given the fact that this campaign has now been going strong for 34 years, that’s saying a lot!

 

No words can express our gratitude to all of the guests and team members who opened their wallets and their hearts for such a great cause. This campaign truly makes a difference in the lives of local children who are being treated at these hospitals.

 

The following hospitals benefited from this year’s campaign:

• Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Of UPMC
• Akron Children’s Hospital of the Mahoning Valley
• Children’s Medical Center of Akron
• Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
• Columbus Children’s Hospital Foundation
• DuBois Regional Medical Center
• Four Diamonds Fund at Penn State Hershey Medical Center
• Geisinger Health System
• Indiana Regional Medical Center
• Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital
• St. Vincent Health System
• University of Virginia Children’s Hospital
• West Virginia University Children’s Hospital

Of course, Caring for Kids wouldn’t be nearly so successful without the generous contributions of our partners. The Neighborhood Ford Store once again donated a car – a 2013 Ford Escape – to be raffled off to one lucky winner. Brendan Dawson of Cheswick, PA got a special holiday surprise on Wednesday when his ticket was drawn by a patient at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC. Congratulations, Brendan!
