RadiFi and the Children’s Miracle Network Team Up to Support Local Children & Families in Jacksonville
In Jacksonville, community is everything. It shows up in the way our neighbors support one another, how local businesses give back, and how organizations rally together for a common cause. One of the most meaningful examples of that spirit is the work of the Children’s Miracle Network and its impact right here in Northeast Florida.
At RadiFi Credit Union, we believe that strong communities are built through action, compassion, and partnership. That’s why we’re proud to partner with the Children’s Miracle Network to support children and families across Jacksonville and beyond.

How the Children’s Miracle Network Supports Local Hospitals in Jacksonville
The Children’s Miracle Network plays a vital role in supporting children’s hospitals in Jacksonville and across Northeast Florida. By funding critical treatments, advanced medical equipment, and essential healthcare services, this national nonprofit delivers real, local impact for children and families in Duval County.
What is the Children’s Miracle Network?
For more than 40 years, the Children’s Miracle Network has been a symbol of hope for children and families facing serious health challenges. As a leading charity dedicated to children’s health, the organization unites donors, corporate partners, and local communities to raise funds for children’s hospitals across the United States and Canada.
What makes their mission especially powerful is its local impact right here in Duval County. Every dollar raised goes to fund critical treatments, healthcare services, pediatric medical equipment and charitable care at local children’s hospitals, UF Health Jacksonville and Wolfson’s Children’s Hospital. That means families in Jacksonville directly benefit from fundraising efforts happening right here in our city.
From life-saving treatments and advanced medical equipment to groundbreaking research and family support services, the Children’s Miracle Network ensures that hospitals have the resources they need to provide the highest level of care.
