About us

Miracles for Kids is one of the only organizations on the West Coast providing monthly financial assistance and subsidized housing to families who are fighting for their child’s life. A recent Harvard study concluded that the number one reason people go bankrupt is medical bills, even though 72% of families filing for bankruptcy had major medical insurance. Miracles for Kids helps critically-ill children and their families stay strong and together, by keeping the lights on and a roof over their heads. Based in Southern California, the organization was founded in 2002 and continues to expand its reach by serving children receiving treatment at four leading hospitals: CHOC Children’s in Orange, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA and Benioff Children’s Hospital in the Bay Area. In addition to paying bills and housing families at Miracle Manor - which is located less than a mile from CHOC - the organization provides crisis counseling, medical care and a variety of other supports to ensure that families have their basic needs met during the most emotionally excruciating time in their lives.

The “Surf & Paddle” Summer Camp is a chance for our families to enjoy a day OFF from medical meetings & stressful days, it’s a FUN carefree day of sun, surf, and sand—all for FREE.

Siblings get a day that feels all about them too, receiving the same special treatment and attention. Child patients get to enjoy a moment of feeling like just a fun-loving kid again as spirits are lifted and they get to run wild on the beach instead of running to doctor’s appointments. Our Summer Event Schedule is as follows and we are searching for more volunteers to be in the water with our kids for July 17th and August 2nd… this is a great way for any company to offer team bonding and get outdoors too. July 17: VOLUNTEERS NEEDED **Paddle at Newport Aquatic Center from 8 AM - 2 PM August 2: VOLUNTEERS NEEDED **Surf at Bolsa Chica State Beach in Huntington from 7 AM - 3 PM Come and join us for beach yoga warm-ups, food from @TheStandRestaurants, sand castle building and a fun-filled memorable summer camp experience learning how to surf or paddleboard! 🌞🏄♂️🏄♀️ #MiraclesForKids #SurfAndPaddle #SummerCamp #WavesOfImpact #FamilyFun #CommunitySupport

    🌟 The 27th Annual Stars & Stripes Tournament Kicks Off Today! 🌟 Welcome to all our guests who have landed in Cabo for a weekend of FUN and unforgettable experiences! This hugely popular event has raised and donated more than $55 million to worthy youth-based organizations over the past 26 years. Last year alone, the event helped us raise $5.2M, and we hope to beat that this year. The Stars & Stripes Tournament brings together over 500 supporters from across the nation, including teams of donors, Miracles for Kids families who get flown out on angel flights, and our amazing volunteers. This world-class charity fundraiser is not just about fun in the Cabo sun; it’s about making a significant impact. We are proud to have been a beneficiary for 15 years, thanks to the dedicated support of the Stars & Stripes Foundation. Guests will enjoy a 🎶 Live concert by Train, ⛳ World-class golf at two of Cabo’s most prestigious courses, 🎣 An exclusive fishing tournament, 🐬 Fabulous activities like swimming with dolphins, 🎸 Nightly concerts, 🍳 Cooking classes, and more! Named after the children it helps - the real stars of the tournament - and the striped marlin in the Sea of Cortez, the Stars & Stripes Foundation began in 1996 as a fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County. Now in its 27th year, Stars & Stripes supports seven Southern California/Mexico-based charities and three honorary charities, providing much-needed financial assistance to expand their programs. We are so grateful to be one! Team registration fees cover all event costs, so donations to Stars & Stripes directly match dollars raised by beneficiary charities, increasing their impact. If you couldn't get to Cabo with us this year, learn more about it now and plan ahead for next year: https://lnkd.in/g3wgqXpX Thank you for supporting Miracles for Kids and the families we serve. #StarsAndStripes2024 #MiraclesForKids #CaboFun #Golf #Fishing #LiveMusic #SupportFamilies #MakeADifference
