Special Thanks to Kiwanis

A special thank you to several of our local Kiwanis clubs for their support of Valley Children's Hospital. Kiwanis is one of our many generous partners through Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.  All funds raised by Kiwanis support trauma education and community outreach programs, ensuring safer futures for the kids of the Central Valley.

We were grateful to receive a grant from the Kiwanis Cal-Nev-Ha Foundation for $21,089.49 to support car seat checks in the Central Valley, including free car seats for needy families. This event enables families to have their car seats checked by trained professionals to ensure that the seats are safely installed and their children are properly secured.  In addition, Kiwanis Division 5 raised $14,500 through their annual event, Miracle Mile of Quarters, and various other events.  We are so grateful to Kiwanis for their ongoing support through many different avenues. 
 

Support for Eagle Oaks Specialty Care Center

Thank you to South Valley Farms for their recent gift of $25,000. This gift will support Valley Children's expansion into the South Valley with the Eagle Oaks Specialty Care Center in Bakersfield. South Valley Farms grows, processes, and packs almonds for customers around the globe, and delivers pistachios to top California processors where they are packaged and shipped worldwide. Even though they operate on a global scale, the small farm values from those early days live on in their people and practices.  Thank you, South Valley Farms!
