Celebrating Panda Cares Day!

East Tennessee Children’s Hospital is celebrating Panda Cares Day!

Today is Panda Cares Day! Panda Cares, the philanthropic arm of Panda Express, commemorates its anniversary on August 8th of every year.

As a longstanding partner of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, Panda Express has raised more than $172 million for our network. Through the creation of Panda Cares Centers of Hope across the country, funds raised have benefited the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being of kids.

This past May, Children’s Hospital was fortunate to host the grand opening of our very own Panda Cares Center of Hope! Along with a 10 year pledge of $855,000, Panda Cares supported the opening of a brand new playroom on one of our inpatient floors.

Children’s Hospital was grateful to be able to host associates from our local Panda Express locations for a fun filled day of activities, crafts, and joy in our Center of Hope!

We even had our Miracle Ambassador, Noah join in on the fun! Pictured here playing an arcade game with Anthony, a local Panda associate.

Today, we celebrate all the Panda Express associates, like Anthony, and their generous guests who have made a difference for children’s health!

Don’t forget to visit your local Panda Express any time throughout the year and donate at the register to support your Children’s Miracle Network Member Hospital!
