Why We Stand

The Stand benefits three Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in the New York City region. Children's Miracle Network is a non-profit organization that raises funds for children's hospitals, medical research, and community awareness for children's health issues in over 170 pediatric hospitals. Miracle Network Dance Marathon is a movement of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. We are the only children’s charity committed to having 100% of the funds raised stay local to support local kids. Since inception, Miracle Network Dance Marathon has raised more than $135 million for kids across North America, ensuring that no child or family fights pediatric illness or injury alone.
