Change Kids’ Health, Change the Future during Lunar New Year at Panda Express

This Friday, February 12, 2021, marks the beginning of Lunar New Year and the Year of the Ox in the Chinese zodiac. Lunar New Year celebrates the coming together of family and friends to feast and welcome the new year and is the most important festival in China.

Since 2007, Panda Express has been bringing good fortune to millions of kids treated at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals by asking for donations at the register all year long. Funds donated stay local and impact patients and families in your community. In 2020, Panda and CMN Hospitals debuted Panda Cares Center of Hope locations across several hospitals in the U.S., including Valley Children’s Hospital. The centers are hospital spaces designed to provide a safe and comforting place where kids can be kids again.

We want to join alongside the associates and guests celebrating this Lunar New Year and take a moment to recognize the immense impact made on Valley Children’s Hospital in 2020. More than $620,000 was raised for Child Life, Spiritual & Chaplain Services, Social Work and Rehabilitation Services at Valley Children’s.

To bring good fortune to your family this year, visit your nearest Panda Express location to pick up a meal and celebrate Lunar New Year beginning February 12. We are grateful for the ongoing partnership with Panda Express and the many ways they address the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual needs of children, bringing them courage and hope to heal and thrive. #PandaCares.

In 2020, Panda Express associates and guests donated millions to 131 Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, bringing the total to more than $100 million over the lifetime of this partnership. Thank you Panda Express!
