As they say, the more the merrier and in the case of Miami Children's Hospital Foundation (MCHF) and Miami Children's Hospital (MCH), we count on our volunteers to be part of our merry family.

Those who give generously of their time are very special friends of our "Diamond of the South" – Miami Children's Hospital. The continued generosity of individuals, corporations and foundations, whether through time or money (both work great!), enables MCHF to achieve the goal of generating funds and awareness all for MCH to ensure that it continues to provide state-of-the-art pediatric care to children from birth to 21.

Since 1976 financial support through MCHF has provided funds that have helped to expand and improve the medical services provided by MCH.

The gift of time is our most precious commodity. We thank all of our volunteers who provide professional advice and referrals for funding opportunities. They help plan and organize fundraising events throughout the year. They also serve as our first line goodwill ambassadors for both the Foundation and the Hospital.
