UMC Children’s Hospital is proud to be the region’s Children’s Miracle Network affiliated hospital…an affiliation since 1983 has helped to establish and continually secure the finest pediatric healthcare for all the Children of the South Plains and Eastern New Mexico region based on need, not their ability to pay. Since 1983, more than $21 million has been raised to purchase much needed pediatric medical equipment, fund valuable research projects, fund education and therapeutic programs, and enhance the overall pediatric health of the 18 official counties of the Children’s’ Miracle Network Lubbock market. While these eighteen counties comprise the official market area for Lubbock Children’s Miracle Network, due to our advanced medical departments and our teaching hospital relationship with the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, patients are referred to the UMC Health System and UMC Children’s Hospital from a 108 county 350 mile radius.

LCU Esports is gearing up for their 24-hour Extra Life stream fundraiser and got some awesome practice time with our Miracle Kid, Eli Clem!

Eli and his family toured the team’s lab and he instantly fell in love with esports. After being off steroids for over a year, seeing him laugh, play, and truly enjoy the day was such a gift!
Huge thanks to Lubbock Christian University and LCU Esports for making this an unforgettable day for Eli! 💛
