At Children’s Miracle Network, Easter reminds us of the incredible power of hope — especially for the children and families in our region who are facing medical challenges. Every day, we work alongside generous donors, partners, and volunteers who help bring healing and support to children across southwest Missouri and north central Arkansas.
Through your support, miracles happen for local kids.
Why Community Support Matters for Local Children
Every year, millions of children across North America receive care through Children’s Miracle Network programs, and many rely on community support to receive the care they need.
Here in the Ozarks, Children’s Miracle Network at CoxHealth raises funds and awareness for the medical care of children from birth through age 18.
Thanks to our partnership with CoxHealth, something truly unique happens:
100 percent of every gift donated goes directly to helping local children.
That means every dollar stays right here in our community to support families when they need it most.
During the Easter season — a time centered around generosity and kindness — we’re reminded just how powerful community support can be.
How Donations Help Local Kids in the Ozarks
When people donate to Children’s Miracle Network, their generosity directly supports programs that help children receive the care they need.
Funds raised in our community help provide:
-
Assistance with hospital and therapy bills
-
Travel assistance for families needing specialized care
-
Meal support for families with children receiving care
-
Support for children in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
-
Health and safety education programs for children and families
These donations also support important programs such as:
✔ Child Life services, helping children cope emotionally during their hospital stay
✔ The C.A.R.E. Mobile, a mobile health clinic providing screenings and immunizations for children with limited access to care
✔ School-Based Virtual Visits, allowing children to receive medical care at school and return to class quickly
Each of these programs helps create healthier futures for children across our region.
Easter Is a Time for Giving
Many families celebrate Easter with traditions like egg hunts, church gatherings, and family meals. But Easter is also a time to reflect on how we can give back and make a difference.
For our team at Children’s Miracle Network at CoxHealth, every donation — large or small — helps bring hope to children who are facing medical challenges.
Community support allows us to help families who might otherwise struggle to afford critical medical care.
For decades, the Ozarks community has shown incredible generosity, helping raise millions of dollars to support children’s healthcare close to home.
That generosity continues to create life-changing miracles for families throughout our region.
