Hurley Foundation
Our Purpose
The Hurley Foundation is a 501c3 nonprofit organization launched in 1993 to raise funds and awareness in support of Hurley Medical Center and Hurley Children’s Hospital. Through community engagement and volunteer support, the Foundation helps advance the hospitals’ mission of “Clinical Excellence. Service to People.”
Founded in 1908 through a gift from James J. Hurley, Hurley Medical Center was established to provide care for all residents, regardless of their ability to pay. Today, the hospital remains self-supporting, serves a large portion of the region’s Medicaid and uninsured populations, and provides millions of dollars in uncompensated care each year.
CHILDREN'S MIRACLE NETWORK (CMN)
CMN raises funds and awareness for 170 Children’s Hospitals across the U.S. and Canada. Hurley Children’s Hospital was invited to join CMN in 1990 because we offer the most outstanding pediatric care in our region regardless of the family’s ability to pay.
Create Miracles
Miracles happen at Hurley
After a collapsed lung led to a diagnosis of Kawasaki disease, Oakley received life saving care at Hurley Children’s Hospital. Thanks to expert care and services supported by Children’s Miracle Network donations, Oakley is a healthy 5-year-old as well as our 2026 CMN Champion.
