We’re excited to share that the Miracle Balloon Campaign at Costco has raised a preliminary total of $52,728! All thanks to the generosity of the El Paso community! This amount represents dollar-by-dollar donations made at the register by Costco customers, and we are incredibly grateful for every contribution.
Even better, Costco will be adding more to the campaign total, making the final impact even greater for the children and families who rely on El Paso Children’s Hospital for care.
This year’s campaign saw a more than 30% increase from last year’s total, and it’s all thanks to the incredible commitment of Costco associates and the overwhelming support from the community. Every department at Costco rallied together, bringing creativity, heart, and a spirit of fun to the fundraising effort.
From organizing themed dress-up days to hosting friendly challenges, the Costco team went all in. One associate even pledged to shave his beard for the first time in 11 years if the team raised $50,000 and they did it!
The funds raised will help ensure that children in El Paso can receive the specialized care they need—without having to leave the city. Your donations help keep families close to home while their children receive lifesaving treatment, support services, and compassionate care.
To every Costco team member, every customer, and every supporter we thank you. Your generosity is helping to bring healing and hope to local kids in need. Stay tuned for the final campaign total as Costco continues to add to this incredible effort. Together, we’re proving that small acts of kindness one dollar at a time can lead to truly miraculous results.
