Thank you for visiting our fundraising page for Children's Hospital. We're participating in a walk to raise money for Children's Hospital in the Race for Children's: Heartbeat 5000 fundraising event and need your help.

As many of you know, our grand-daughter Kennedy was born premature at 25 weeks. She was delicate and weighed 1lb, 6oz. After being born at Ridgeview Hospital in Waconia (another terrific organization who helped save her life) she spent the first nine months at Children's Hospital in Minneapolis. Without the wonderful staff at Children's, the journey for our daughter and son-in-law, Tami and Adam, would have been even more difficult. Being part of this community we have come to know other families who have needed the services of Children's. Without exception, the staff at Children's have been praised for their care and expertise and helping keep our precious kids and grand-kids alive and growing.

Please join us in supporting this wonderful organization by donating what you can and helping future families in need.

Thank you for your generosity.

If you click on Kennedy's photo at the top (next to my goofy mug) you'll see a small glimpse of her first year in photos...
