7-Eleven Launches Fundraising Campaign for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals
7-Eleven, Inc. has proudly announced the initiation of an in-store fundraising campaign aimed at supporting the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN Hospitals). This campaign, which runs from October 29, 2025, to January 6, 2026, allows customers at participating 7-Eleven®, Speedway®, and Stripes® locations to round up their purchases at checkout or donate as little as $1. The funds generated through this initiative directly benefit local children's hospitals across the nation, providing much-needed resources to improve pediatric healthcare.
Marissa Jarratt, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Sustainability Officer at 7-Eleven, expressed excitement, stating, "We are thrilled to invite our customers to join us in supporting Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Every donation at the register makes a direct impact in our customers' community, with funds going to their local children's hospital. Investing in children's health today helps build stronger communities for future generations."
The impact of the campaign cannot be overstated; it is set to provide essential resources and lifesaving equipment to over 113 member hospitals across the United States. One of those stories is that of Will, a 13-year-old from Austin, Texas. Before a tragic car accident left him paralyzed, Will was a sports enthusiast. Thanks to the care he received at Dell Children's Medical Center, a member of CMN Hospitals, he was able to access specialized therapies necessary for his recovery. His journey didn't end with recovery; he now mentors younger children facing similar challenges, showcasing the potential to live fulfilling lives despite obstacles.
Aimee J. Daily, Ph.D., President and CEO of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, shared her gratitude for the support 7-Eleven has provided over the years. Since initiating their partnership, 7-Eleven has raised more than $200 million, significantly contributing to the care of countless children in need. "Together, we are changing kids' health and the future," Daily noted, highlighting the tremendous impact of community support.
