Champions is a Children's Miracle Network
Hospitals program that brings attention to the important work being done at its
170 children’s hospitals. It does this by honoring 54 remarkable kids who have
faced severe medical challenges, and helping them tell their stories.
The Champions program designates a child in every state who has bravely battled a serious injury or illness. The Champions represent the 17 million children treated at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals every year. The 2012 Champions have dealt with a wide variety of injuries and illnesses including genetic diseases, organ transplants and traumas, as well as various types of cancer.
The Champions travel for a week in September, first to Washington, D.C., where they traditionally meet with their state representatives on Capitol Hill and visit the White House. They then take a private chartered flight, provided by Delta Air Lines, to Orlando, Fla. While there, Champions meet Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals corporate partners, hospital representatives and media partners. These groups convene to celebrate a year of medical miracles during the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Celebration event at Walt Disney World Resort.

I was entertained by an Angel today! Keilana, is a survivor and her spirit truly Blessed Me! This little girl has such a open heart and is just looking for somebody to share her love with. We played some games on her ipad, she showed me how to make sushi, lemonade, a cake, and then we raced to see who could eat it all the fastest!!! (She won) At the end of our time together we said goodbye and she gave me a great big unexpected hug! I wish she her and her family many more Blessings! Donate to the Cause people!
