Aflac
For over 27 years, Aflac has been helping to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children with cancer and blood disorders, starting in 1995 with the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, then joining Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals as a national partner in 2016. To date, Aflac has raised and contributed more than $160 million to pediatric cancer and blood disorders and has donated and distributed more than 17,000 My Special Aflac Ducks to 350-plus hospitals and disease-focused organizations.
My Special Aflac Duck
My Special Aflac Duck is a social robot that offers a sense of comfort, joy, and control to children undergoing cancer treatment or living with sickle cell disease. Aflac, along with Sproutel, a patient-centered research and development company, debuted My Special Aflac Duck for pediatric cancer patients in 2018, and two years later introduced one with features and play accessories designed specifically for sickle cell patients.
Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals
Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals® raises funds for 170 children’s hospitals that support the health of 10 million kids each year across the U.S. and Canada. Donations go to local hospitals to fund critical life-saving treatments and healthcare services, along with innovative research, vital pediatric medical equipment, child life services that put kids’ and families’ minds at ease during difficult hospital stays and financial assistance for families who could not otherwise afford these health services. When we improve the health of all children and allow them the opportunity to reach their full potential, we also improve our communities for years to come. Together, we can change kits’ health.
Together, we can change the future.
