Become a Miracle Maker!
Anyone can be a Miracle Maker, walker and virtual walker alike. It means demonstrating your commitment to healthy kids with high impact action. It means using your dedication and determination to successfully raise a minimum of $750. It means joining a growing group of deeply committed walkers who know how important miracles can be in healing children.

Very often, Miracle Makers are former patients and family members who are grateful for the miracles they experienced at Children’s Hospital. It changed their lives and they are eager to make it possible for miracles to happen for other boys and girls. Some Miracle Makers are individuals, while others participate as members of teams, often in the name of a beloved child.

Miracle Makers earn the warmest gratitude of Children’s Hospital Boston, its staff, and its patients. They are honored with a special t-shirt after the Walk and are celebrated at a reception each fall. In addition, they gain the satisfaction of knowing they have made miracle cures and miracle discoveries more accessible for present and future patients who come to Boston from all over the world seeking the solution to questions that have not yet been answered.

“Our family walks to support a hospital that provides extraordinary care for extraordinary kids. It is a way for our family, loved ones and friends to give back to the hospital and be a part of the Children’s community in a very real and exciting way.”

“We walk to celebrate the clarity that our daughter Olivia, having undergone two open-heart surgeries has given us: that every day each of us has is a blessing. The incredible love our other children, Johnny and Julia, have shown over this time is amazing. Any small way we can impact another family facing a similar challenge is very special to us.”
