For thirty years, Ace Hardware has proudly partnered with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN) to “Change Kids’ Health.” Since 1991, store associates and customers have helped raise more than $140 million to support local kids and families when they need it most through campaigns like Round Up for the Kids and Miracle Bucket Days.
During the month of April, participating Ace Hardware locations asked customers to round up their purchases, and Charlotte’s Blackhawk Hardware stepped up to the challenge by raising nearly $6,000 for our local CMN hospital, Levine Children’s Hospital. Over the past 30 years, local Ace Hardware stores have raised over $308,000 for patient programs at Levine Children’s.
Just last year, Ace Hardware was selected as the CMN Corporate Partner of the Year, as retailers went above and beyond for partnering hospitals, donating personal protective equipment to frontline workers and raising $17.9 million for CMN Hospitals, a 15% increase year over year.
We’d like to thank Blackhawk Hardware and Ace Hardware locations nationwide for being the helpful place, and recognize the generous store associates and customers who are helping change kids’ health to change the future!
