Step up to Help Kids during Ace Hardware Bucket Days Aug. 4-6

Ace customers like the reward of transformation. The ability to build, create and improve. That is why the helpful place makes it easy to create lasting change, including how UF Health Shands Children’s Hospital, a member hospital of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, cares for kids.

Each year, more kids need the custom care that only children’s hospitals provide. Children’s hospitals are on the frontlines when it comes to protecting the health of future generations. But they can’t do it alone.

When you step up to help kids and buy a miracle bucket at Ace Hardware, for $5, that donation goes to the local member hospital, UF Health Shands Children’s Hospital, unlocking a world of possibilities. As a thank you, Ace Hardware will provide customers a 20% discount on most everything they can fit in the bucket!

And most importantly, your donation will allow young patients the opportunity to lead healthy, fulfilling lives while also fostering the builders and creators of tomorrow.

Patients like Beckett, who arrived at UF Health Shands Children’s Hospital on Christmas Eve at just three months old. His family settled into our hospital knowing he needed one thing, a miracle – a new heart. That miracle arrived just days later in the form of a perfect match for young Beckett, who now, seven years later, is proud to share how UF Health Shands Children’s Hospital changed his life. Our hospital had the advanced medical team, life-saving equipment and patient & families services that his family needed, when they needed it most – and charitable support made that possible.

One dollar at a time, corporate partners, donors, supporters and volunteers make stories like Beckett’s possible for more families who turn to our hospital when they need world-class care.

Together, we see what the future can be and are working to make it a reality. Because when we change kids’ health, we change the future – for all of us.
