Make Miracles Happen During Ace Bucket Days – August 1–3, 2025
There’s something special about the feeling of making a difference—of building something
better. That’s why Ace Hardware is known as the helpful place. And this August, they’re making
it easier than ever to help create lasting change for kids treated at member hospitals of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
From August 1–3, stop by your participating neighborhood Ace Hardware and donate $5 to receive an
exclusive 5-gallon Miracle Bucket. Then enjoy 20% off almost everything you can fit
inside—all while helping change kids’ health to change the future.
Every Miracle Bucket sold directly supports the care and programs at member children’s hospitals,
helping kids receive the personalized treatments they need to thrive. Your $5 donation stays
local, supporting breakthrough technology, life-saving equipment, family services, and care that
is made just for kids.
You’re helping kids like Jesse. At five-monthsold, Jesse was involved in a house fire, which burned over 25% of his body. Jesse stayed at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt’s Burn Unit for more than two months, where he received multiple skin grafts and skin release surgeries. He has continued to turn to the care of specialists ever since. Jesse’s guardian Candace says that Vanderbilt was there every step of the way, from training her on burn and wound care to occupational and physical therapy
adaptations, to weekly training sessions to help Jesse get to be a kid, in spite of his burns. Now,
Jesse wants to help everyone in need. When he grows up, he wants to be a police officer,
firefighter, or both. Every Thanksgiving, Jesse oversees his family’s annual tradition of bringing
dinner to a local shelter to give back to the community.
Together, we can build something extraordinary: a healthier future for all children.
So, head to your local Ace Hardware August 1–3, grab a bucket, and help change kids’ health
to change the future—one $5 donation at a time.
