4 Reasons to be a Superhero and Support Rite Aid’s Campaign for Children’s Hospitals

On Sunday, March 13, Rite Aid kicks off its 22nd annual Miracle Balloon campaign for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Here are a few reasons to participate:

Get coupons. Purchase a $1 Miracle Balloon through April 30 and receive $7 in coupon offers for a variety of items sold at Rite Aid.

Support local kids. Your donation will go to the children's hospital in your community to provide pediatric equipment, treatments, research, therapy programs and charitable care. Rite Aid's campaign supports 95 Children's Miracle Network Hospitals across the country.

Make history. Since 1994, Rite Aid associates have raise $75 million for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, including $6.3 million in 2015.

Help kids like Grayson. At two years of age, Grayson was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Chemotherapy helped shrink the tumor, but less than a year later, he was badly injured in a lawnmower accident, losing four toes and a partial amputation of his foot. The child life department at his CMN Hospital, supported by donations, helped Grayson and his family cope with the emotional stress associated with his diagnoses and treatments.
