McLane Miles of Smiles Trailer Reveal Celebration

6 days ago

"On Tuesday, February 3, McLane Southwest marked a meaningful milestone alongside teammates, partners, and community supporters with the unveiling of four newly wrapped trailers celebrating the launch of Children’s Miracle Network’s (CMN) Miles of Smiles fundraising campaign. Each trailer features a CMN Champion, patients from Baylor Scott & White McLane Children’s Medical Center in Temple, Texas, whose courage and resilience bring this longstanding partnership to life.   The celebration brought together McLane teammates, CMN partners, McLane Children’s leaders, and the families behind these remarkable children. Together, they honored a shared commitment to supporting children’s healthcare across Central Texas and the powerful impact that comes from standing united around a common purpose.   For nearly 40 years, McLane has proudly partnered with Children’s Miracle Network to help ensure children and families have access to the care they need, close to home. Through fundraising, volunteerism, and community engagement, McLane teammates continue to support programs and services that make a difference for kids throughout the region.    Now hitting the road, the Miles of Smiles trailers, our Big Trucks with a Big Purpose, will travel across Texas, raising awareness for the lifechanging work happening every day at CMN hospitals. More than moving freight, these trailers serve as rolling reminders of compassion, community partnership, and the essential care provided at McLane Children’s.   Thank you to every McLane teammate who continues to support CMN through generosity, involvement, and advocacy. Your commitment helps deliver hope, healing, and exceptional care to children and families when they need it most. "
