Children's Hospital Los Angeles (#1 children's hospital on the west coast and top 5 in the country) has launched their 6th Annual Make March Matter Campaign, a national campaign that rallies celebrities and businesses across fashion, fitness, restaurants, and more to support the life-saving care the hospital provides.
In order to maintain their lifesaving programs at CHLA and provide care for all children(regardless of health insurance), the hospital hosts this annual fundraising initiative - Make March Matter – where more than 80 brands, businesses and organizations rally together to support the hospital throughout the month of March. Over the last four years, MMM has raised more than $7 million, worked with 260 corporate partners, and hosted 139 events.
Dawn Wilcox, the V.P. of Corporate Partnerships at Children's Hospital Los Angeles and Founder of Make March Matter, founded a unique fundraising campaign that doesn't simply say, "please donate"; rather, it galvanizes the LA community around children's health in a way that benefits the hospital and local businesses in our community.
