Founded in 1983 by Marie Osmond and her family, John Schneider, Mick Shannon, and Joe Lake, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals began as a televised fundraiser in a small local studio. Today, it is one of the largest children’s charities in North America, raising over $4.3 billion in 2011, much of which was donated a dollar at a time.
