Cape Girardeau—RE/MAX Plus Realty held a fundraiser on June 10 from 4:30-8:30 p.m., donating all proceeds to Children’s Miracle Network. The event consisted of raffles, games, face painting, balloonologist, food/beverage and free hot air balloon rides in the RE/MAX Balloon. Peyton, one of the ambassador children from CMN, and her family were at the event. Peyton and her father had the inaugural hot air balloon ride and she chose the winners of each of the raffles.
These funds will be essential for keeping local families connected to the Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital and Children’s Hospital of St. Louis. There is a helicopter located at Farmington, MO to transport local children to St. Louis on a moment’s notice. Those seconds and minutes may make the difference in the health of the child.
RE/MAX has been a corporate sponsor of Children’s Miracle Network since 1992.
