On behalf of all of us here at Valley Children’s Healthcare Foundation, we wish you a Happy New Year. Thank you for your generous support throughout the past year. Your support helped many children receive a special gift in 2020: blessings of hope, healing and the promise for a brighter future. We look forward to partnering again with you in 2021 as we make a difference in children's lives together!

A huge thank you to Derrel's Mini Storage, who has generously supported Valley Children's Hospital since 1986. Over that span, Derrel's Mini Storage has donated more $1million to help meet the most immediate healthcare needs for local kids. In 2020, Derrel's Mini Storage donated an incredible $37,125 through its ongoing campaign.

We thank Derrel's Mini Storage for their continued philanthropic support!

A very special thank you to Mr. Jim Shehadey and the Central Valley Petroleum Invitational Committee for their continued support. This year, the group held their 34th annual golf tournament, raising $25,000 to help meet the most immediate needs to support patients and families at Valley Children's. We appreciate all of the tournament participants, sponsors and other partners in the petroleum industry who supported the event. Together, they are making a difference in lives of our patients to ensure they receive the best care.

Valley Children's recently received a remarkable gift from the heart as Jace, whose siblings have been treated at Valley Children’s, wanted to raise money for patients during the holidays. Jace asked family and friends to help, and he raised $453. When asked where would he like the funds to be donated, Jace sweetly said, “The kids with cancer.”

It is the greatest gift seeing kids giving back to kids. Jace, thank you for making a difference in the lives of our patients so that they can get back to being kids again.

We are thrilled to announce that the 34th annual Kids Day event will be taking place on Tuesday, March 9th. We have worked diligently towards creating a safe way to carry on this Valley tradition through these unprecedented times. The health and well-being of our patients, families and the community at large are our top priorities.

At Valley Children's, we are continuously working hard to keep the community informed and connected to our mission and the life-saving work our clinical team performs every day. Although our 8,000 volunteers will not be hitting the streets this year for Kids Day, there are still opportunities to help raise crucial funds in support of Valley Children’s Hospital through various platforms, including our online website or text-to-give.

We appreciate our community’s continued support and dedication to this beloved event. For up-to-date information, please see our Kids Day webpage.
