Phoenix Children's Give-A-Thon: A Heartfelt Call to Action
Join the Phoenix Children's Give-A-Thon week and become a Champion of Hope. It's time to make a life-changing impact on countless young lives.
Every August, Arizona comes alive with a spirit of generosity and love as it turns its attention towards those who need it the most - the children treated at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. This year marks the 17th anniversary of the Phoenix Children’s Give-A-Thon, a week-long fundraising event that stands as the largest hospital radio fundraiser in the nation. It’s not just an event; it’s a movement aimed at transforming lives by providing the essential medical care that every child deserves.
Embracing the Challenge: Become a Champion of Hope
The Give-A-Thon extends an open call to the community - become a Champion of Hope by pledging just $20 a month. This simple gesture helps ensure that a teddy bear, a symbol of comfort and warmth, is hand-delivered to a young patient thanks to the TRANE Teddy Bear Express. Whether you’re moved by a personal connection or a desire to make a difference, every dollar matters. For a hospital that treated over 260,000 young patients last year, your contributions are the lifeline that supports this compassionate endeavor.
Joining Hands with Community Leaders and Sponsors
Held from August 18 to 22, this impactful event is proudly presented by Your Valley Hyundai Dealers and Yrefy. It will be broadcasted live on KTAR News and Arizona Sports, generating awareness and enthusiasm from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily, and concluding with a special in-person fundraising session at the hospital itself. Sponsors like Hyundai, Yrefy, and America Roofing, along with numerous others, amplify the cause by actively facilitating these vital resources.
Reflecting on Past Successes and Future Aspirations
Last year’s Give-A-Thon achieved a milestone with a record-breaking $2.36 million in donations. But success isn’t only measured in financial terms. It’s seen in every smile from a child whose pain has been alleviated, every medical aid seamlessly provided, and every family that leaves the hospital with hope renewed. This year, we aim not only to match that figure but exceed it, propelling Phoenix Children’s into a future where their transformative care can continue unhindered.
