The Heartwarming Tale of PEACH: An 8-Year-Old from Yakima Valley
Meet Peach!
She is a darling child who lives in Yakima Valley, and I think her story will tug at your heart.
Peach was diagnosed with an extra chromosome before she was born. When she arrived in the world, she had a heart murmur.
Her parents quickly sought care for Peach and thanks to many local donations, they were able to utilize many services from the Children’s Miracle Network.
As a baby and toddler, she was able to receive physical therapy care at Children’s Village, where she learned how to crawl like a little baby champ.
The Children’s Miracle Network has raised millions of dollars to help out families in the Valley who need medical treatments for their kids that they typically cannot receive here in the Yakima Valley.
The Memorial Foundation holds various fundraisers and appeals to local donations to bring in medical specialists to provide pediatric services at Children’s Village.
Our donations help cover some of the equipment needed to keep local preemie newborns healthy in the neonatal intensive care equipment (NICU) at MultiCare Yakima Memorial Hospital.
