This summer I had the privilege of attending Family Forward at Universal Studios Orlando. Now in its 3rd year, the Family Forward event in Orlando offers the perfect way to grow stronger as a family, and make meaningful theme-park vacation memories. Family Forward gives families experiences, ideas, and skills to embrace bonding in the digital age through workshops centered on topics like charity, communication, creativity, team building, and trust.
To kick off Family Forward in epic fashion we had an opening party Thursday night hosted by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals with a Super Hero theme! You can read about it here.

Facts about Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals:
- 62 children enter a Children’s Miracle Network Hospital every minute
- Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals supports 170 children’s hospitals across North America
- $5 Billion has been raised since 1983, mostly a dollar at a time
- 1 in 10 kids in North America is treated by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals each year
As we head into the holiday season, the season of giving, several companies are teaming up with CMN Hospitals to help. They are selling products benefiting Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
- Chico’s will donate $10 from every $25 purchase of its gold or silver Miracle Necklace.

- White House Black Market will donate $15 from every $30 purchase of their Convertible Miracles Necklace.
