Thank you CMN Partners!

This week we hosted our first CMN Partnership Summit at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.  We had an amazing “meeting of the minds” where we discussed several topics including community and corporate engagement, improving your business through data analytics and fostering innovation.  Throughout the presentation our partners heard some amazing stories about this year’s CMN Patient Champion Ambassadors Millie, Brielle, Arjun and Aiden.  Special guests Dr. Amy Dunn and Jeremy Patterson came by to educate us on their virtual reality environment created to help hemophilia patients cope with being stuck with needles.  After learning best practices, participating in an ice breaker activity that involved drawing some of our animal friends around the hospital and finding their “why” behind supporting Nationwide Children’s, we honored the following stores for doing outstanding work in 2016:

Most Improved Award – Ace Hardware

Engagement Award – Credit Unions for Kids

Collaboration Award – IHOP & OTTERTHON

For The Kids Award – BuckeyeThon

Hashtag Award – Sunny 95

Compassion Award – Walmart/Sam’s Club

Kids Choice Award – Dairy Queen

Although there were only seven awards given out, WE APPRECIATE ALL our CMN Partners and want to THANK EVERYONE for giving their time and efforts to support the hospital through every ask, every round up and every positive story you share to help spread the awareness of the good work we are doing at Nationwide Children’s.

THANK YOU!!
