28th Annual Children's Miracle Network Telethon Celebration


The 28th Annual Telethon in Corpus Christi the Rio Grande Valley commemorated another year of community support and involvement for Driscoll Children's Hospital. The annual celebration represents donations from individuals, community organizations, corporations and foundations who support Driscoll's mission throughout the year through Miracle Balloon campaigns, workplace giving campaigns and other cause marketing promotions.

The 2012 Telethon celebrated a total of $2,590,571 that has been raised for the children of South Texas throughout the year, and adds to the over $28 million dollars that have been raised since 1984.

Thank you to our media partners at Kiii-TV South Texas and KGBT-TV Harlingen for their dedication to the success of this year's Telethon.
