Story
Are you looking for a fun and meaningful opportunity to give back? Creating your own online or in-person fundraiser can make a world of difference for the patients and families at Ranken Jordan! Be a FRIEND of Ranken Jordan by creating a fundraiser to share with your friends. A "Friendraiser" is a great way to spread awareness about Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital. By engaging your network, you will have a tremendous impact on children in the hospital.
You can choose from a variety of "Friendraisers" or create your own innovative fundraiser. Your creativity and contributions will allow Ranken Jordan to provide hope and healing through our special care model called Care Beyond the Bedside. Your gift will help hospitalized children play, learn, and get the support they need to recover and make the transition from the hospital to home.
