Attendees had the opportunity to adopt a family for the holidays through the Holiday Basket of Miracles program, directly supporting and positively impacting families in need.
Guests Gather in Holiday Spirit to Make a Tangible Difference for Families with Critically-Ill Children
The day was filled with inspiring moments, including a touching speech from 2024 grant recipient, Norma Ramos, who shared how Miracles for Kids supported her family through the challenges of her child’s illness. Guests were also moved by a powerful address from 2024 Paralympic Cycling Gold Medalist Samantha Bosco, who shared her journey of resilience, strength, and hope.
In the true spirit of the season and giving, attendees had the opportunity to adopt a family for the holidays through the Holiday Basket of Miracles program, directly supporting and positively impacting families in need. Through the generosity of attendees and sponsors, the event raised an incredible $180,000+, with 82 families adopted. These contributions will ensure that families facing overwhelming challenges receive the essential resources and support they need this holiday season and throughout the year. With many families still awaiting adoption, there's an ongoing opportunity to bring joy and relief to children and parents alike. By gifting holiday toys for kids and essential items for older children or adults, each adoption can make a profound difference, helping to brighten lives and ease burdens during this special season.
“We would like to thank our presenting sponsor Lugano, all attendees, event sponsors Hammacher Schlemmer, IFMA, The Adventures of Chi Chi the Chinchilla, Marmar Sikka, Nancie Pham, Omar and Najia Chaudhary and Dr. Jennifer Armstrong for their incredible support, making this year’s 360° Miracle Holiday Tea an unforgettable day,” said Laura Collins, Development Officer, Community Engagement for Miracles for Kids. “This event beautifully captured the spirit of giving, leaving a lasting impact on the lives of families in need.”
