AVERY FIVEASH RECEIVES THE 2022 HOSPITAL ADVISOR OF THE YEAR

Miracle Network Dance Marathon recognized top performing Dance Marathon programs at the Dance Marathon Leadership Conference held in Atlanta, GA July 21-24, 2022.

Congratulations to Avery Fiveash of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta for earning the Hospital Advisor of the Year. Fiveash provided the students with every imaginable resource to stay connected to the hospital for another year without hospital visits due to COVID-19. She delivered virtual hospital tours for students and presented them with plans for the newest changes happening to the hospital campus to keep them motivated and show the students their impact. Students were provided with details of how every dollar they raise counts and the work that they put into their organization does not go unnoticed. Fiveash always goes above and beyond to support and encourage the students, including acquiring items like a signed football to award to the highest fundraiser!

Miracle Network Dance Marathon is an international movement, involving over 400 colleges, universities and K-12 schools across the United States and Canada that fundraise for their local member hospital of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. These students work tirelessly throughout the year to raise funds one dollar at a time by making the ask to family and friends. Their hard work culminates in a 6–40-hour celebration on their campus or virtually, where participants have the opportunity to rally together as a community for their local member hospital of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Students involved in Dance Marathon gain valuable skills in fundraising, peer management, delegation, and philanthropy. Miracle Network Dance Marathon programs have collectively raised more than $300 million since 1991.
