Women Working to Make Miracles

Join a growing network of compassionate women dedicated to providing stability for low-income families with critically-ill children at Miracles for Kids.

Imagine hearing your child is diagnosed with congenital heart defects before she’s born and having to navigate her condition as a single mother on a limited income in Orange County. This was the reality that Mayte faced when her daughter, Berenice, had to undergo open heart surgery 5 days after she was born. Due to other organ complications, Berenice would need multiple surgeries which was very difficult, financially and emotionally, for Mayte.

Because of the compassionate women who are part of 360° Miracle, the first-ever women’s network to support families at Miracles for Kids, moms like Mayte have been able to find solace and support through devastating circumstances. Contributing $83.33/month or 1,000 annually, members of 360° Miracle help families with critically-ill children fight bankruptcy, homelessness, hunger, and depression—so they can fight for their kids’ lives. Not only does 100% of their contribution go directly to support vulnerable families at Miracles for Kids but their collective contribution has made an indelible impact for the 300+ families the organization serves annually.

Most families at Miracles for Kids face a daunting reality of fighting their child’s life-threatening illness living in close proximity to the federal poverty line with an average annual household income of only $23,700. Providing financial assistance to help with mounting bills, housing for families facing homelessness or eviction, counseling, and wellness support along with basic needs, Miracles for Kids is a lifeline.

Launching in the wake of the pandemic, 360° Miracle started with a small group of founding members and has grown to 150 members strong, raising over $150,000 in the first year. Not only do the caring women who are part of this growing network contribute financially but they become champions of vulnerable families by volunteering, collaborating, and connecting with one another to change lives.

Coming together at a crucial time, this network is gearing-up to host its inaugural 360° Miracle Holiday Tea on Wednesday, November 10th. Raising support for critically-ill children and their families for the holidays, this will be an exceptional English Tea Party experience. The invitation is open to members and nonmembers and will invigorate and inspire all who attend to make a difference for the most vulnerable in Southern California and beyond.

For mom’s like Mayte, 360° Miracle has afforded her opportunities she wouldn’t otherwise have. Working several parttime jobs to support Berenice and herself, she recently stepped into a new role supporting a 360° Miracle member with her candle making workshops. With Berenice’s condition stabilizing, Mayte is finally able to find peace thanks to a community of compassionate women called 360° Miracle.
