About Children's Miracle Network Hospitals
Phi Delta Epsilon believes in giving back to our global community. Our international philanthropic and service partner is Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) Hospitals. There are more than 170 Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals worldwide, and each year these hospitals treat 17 million children. Collectively, they impact the lives of more children than any other children's organization in the world.
Children’s hospitals are special places, graced with experts trained in the care and handling of small, fragile, sick, and injured children. It is critical that we, as a society, support these islands of care because any child can get sick or become seriously injured. When they do, it is critical that there be a children’s hospital nearby.

Our Events
Anatomy Fashion Show
Anatomy Fashion Show (AFS) is a trademarked signature fundraising event by PhiDE where students display artistic renditions of various human body systems. Food and entertainment are often provided, and we hold silent auctions and prize raffles at the event as well!
Since our inaugural AFS in Fall of 2021, we have raised $10,000 for Childrens Miracle Network Hospitals from AFS alone!
Stand for the Kids
Stand for the Kids (SFTK) is a trademarked event where our members spend a full week fundraising for CMNH. On Wednesday of the week, all Phi Delta Epsilon members stand for the kids, a moment to commemorate the lives lost to pediatric illness.
