“We are so grateful to our remarkable partner, Speedway, for their ongoing commitment to CMN Hospitals and the miracle families they recognize each year at this tournament,” This event raises funds to help children’s hospitals care for sick and injured kids in communities where their stores are located.”
A total of 43 Speedway Miracle Children and their families, representing 40 CMN Hospitals across the country, were in attendance at the event. Almost 800 participating golfers had the opportunity to meet and interact with them while out on the golf course and hear their stories. The event also included a celebration dinner with a medals ceremony for the kids.
“Just in the last seven years, this tournament has raised almost $15 million to support local children’s hospitals,” executive vice president and chief operating officer for Speedway. “These funds are used for critical lifesaving equipment and much needed resources at the hospitals to help treat sick and injured kids. The 43 Miracle Children who attended this year’s event are a testimony to the value of our long-term relationship with CMN Hospitals.”
Since 1991, Speedway has raised more than $109 million for CMN Hospitals, primarily through year-round fundraising in the stores and other initiatives such as an employee payroll deduction program.
