UMC Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) is hosting a month-long fundraiser called Month of Miracles to raise money to continue to provide the latest technology in a healing environment at UMC Children’s Hospital. During the whole month of August, local businesses will fundraise and all donations will directly benefit UMC Children’s Hospital and CMN. We want YOU to join us!

UMC is opening our brand-new Children’s Emergency Center. The new campus is an emergency room just for kids, with access to more resuscitation and trauma rooms than any other hospital in West Texas.

For two weeks out of this spring semester, students from 28 schools in and around the Lubbock area participated in the ‘Miracle Pennies Campaign’ benefitting UMC Children’s Hospital through Children’s Miracle Network. Students were asked to bring their spare change to participate in dress-up days, student vs. teacher basketball and dodgeball games, kiss the pig contests and more.

Thanks to UMC’s Child Life department, pediatric patients, and their families, get to celebrate Halloween in a fun, interactive way.

UMC is proud to announce our recent recognition by Safe Kids Worldwide as a designated center. We are the only hospital in the region to be recognized as such and look forward to increasing our educational scope with this opportunity.

Please join UMC on Friday for “Pinwheels for Prevention” in recognition of National Child Abuse Prevention Month.
