Costco customers raise money for children’s hospitals

Costco has been a partner with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals for more than 30 years. In that time, the retailer has raised more than $300 million for children’s hospitals in the U.S. and Canada, including Sanford Children’s Hospitals in Fargo, North Dakota, and Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

This year, the Miracle Balloon campaign starts on May 1 and runs the entire month. At checkout, customers will have the opportunity to support Children’s Miracle Network at Sanford Children’s Hospital.

The warehouse also will host special events and other fundraising activities for members and employees throughout the month of May.
