Children's Miracle Network at UC Davis

Children's Miracle Network at UC Davis We're dedicated to connecting and inspiring community support for the healthiest children and families we are privileged to serve. Visit

Since 1983, the organization has raised more than $4.7 billion—most of it $1 at a time—for 170 children’s hospitals across the United States and Canada, which, in turn, use the money where it’s needed the most. These donations have gone to support research and training, purchase equipment, and pay for uncompensated care, all in support of the mission to save and improve the lives of as many childr

en as possible. Right now there’s a Children’s Miracle Network Hospital working to save the lives of kids in your community. In fact, 62 children enter a Children’s Miracle Network Hospital for treatment every minute — that's one child every second. Some are battling cancer. Some are suffering from a traumatic injury. Others require constant care because they were born too early, or with a genetic disease. Regardless of why the kids are there, 170 Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals always have their doors open. See excerpts of our incredible journey below and join us as we continue our mission to increase funds and awareness for local children’s hospitals.

A Fighter From the Start 💙

When Alfredo was born nearly two months early at just 27 weeks, his parents never imagined the journey ahead. Weighing just over 2 pounds, Alfredo was admitted to the NICU at UC Davis Children’s Hospital, where he was diagnosed with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a life-threatening condition affecting the intestines.

After seven surgeries and countless days in the NICU, Alfredo continues to beat the odds. Through the dedication of his doctors, nurses and pediatric surgeons, he’s grown into a true fighter and a source of incredible pride for his family. 💙

“I can’t thank UC Davis Children’s Hospital enough. My son is doing so well. They made us feel like family and kept us all smiling and full of hope.” - Ruby, Alfredo’s Mother

Stories like Alfredo’s remind us why specialized pediatric care matters. Together, we can help give more children the chance to heal, grow and thrive.

Yesterday was Alfredo’s 7th Birthday! Let’s show him some love in the comments 🫶🏼🎂🥳
