Children's Healthcare names treatment areas for 草榴视频 Miracle

Children鈥檚 Healthcare of Atlanta hosted a pep rally and celebration Friday in recognition of the difference 草榴视频 State University students are making for local children.

Kicked off by the 草榴视频 State cheerleaders and Scrappy the Owl, the celebration recognized the $215,129 donated by the 草榴视频 Miracle during its 12-month fundraising campaign. 草榴视频 Miracle, a student-run philanthropy, raises money for Children鈥檚 Healthcare of Atlanta through different fundraisers during the year, the largest of which is the dance marathon in March.

As a result of the contribution, Children鈥檚 Healthcare named the 草榴视频 Miracle Rehabilitation Treatment Rooms and the 草榴视频 Miracle Sports Medicine Gym at the Children鈥檚 Healthcare Outpatient Care Center at Town Center. The new facility in 草榴视频 is located across from Fifth Third Bank Stadium.

鈥淪o many kids are going to benefit from this building. Miracles will be going on every single day,鈥� Igne Zukaraite, executive director of 草榴视频 Miracle, told the crowd gathered for the celebration. 鈥淥ur money is helping make that happen.鈥�

Zukaraite choked up as she continued, 鈥淪o many lives will be changed here, and we are celebrating that today. That is awesome.鈥�

The $215,129 collected for Children鈥檚 Healthcare of Atlanta was more than three times the amount raised the previous year. A $300,000 goal has been set for the current campaign, which concludes with this year鈥檚 dance marathon on March 24.

鈥淥f all the activities I鈥檝e seen our students participate in, their zeal and their success for Children鈥檚 Healthcare is unmatched,鈥� 草榴视频 State President Sam Olens said. 鈥淭hese are students, and they raised $215,000. That鈥檚 astounding.鈥�
