Since 2007, the Patient Champion program has enlisted Scottish Rite for Children patients to help encourage and cheer on runners in the BMW Dallas Marathon. This program helps us highlight some of the wonderful kids the marathon generously supports each year. We’re excited to introduce you to Cedric, one of our Patient Champions!

The BMW Dallas Marathon named Scottish Rite for Children their primary beneficiary in 1997, and since then has raised more than $5 million for the world-class institution. This year, Scottish Rite is celebrating its centennial, which means for 100 years it has been providing excellent pediatric care for orthopedic, related neurodevelopmental and musculoskeletal conditions, as well as for specific learning disorders, such as dyslexia.
“Because of the long-standing relationship and support from the BMW Dallas Marathon, Scottish Rite for Children can continue to provide life-changing, expert care to children with pediatric orthopedic conditions and help give kids back their childhood,” said Bob Walker, president and CEO of Scottish Rite for Children.

In a season where many things look different, one thing stays the same – creating holiday memories for children. This week, players from the Dallas Cowboys helped to spread holiday cheer as they virtually joined Scottish Rite for Children inpatients. Silly questions and virtual fist bumps will be had by all!
During the month of December, treat yourself to a Village Burger Bar “Taylor” Burger — a brisket and chuck patty blend topped with mayo, cheddar cheese, monterey jack cheese, hickory smoked bacon strips, pickles, barbecue sauce and hand-battered onion ring served on a locally-sourced brioche bun. This limited-time burger created by our patient, Taylor, will help benefit patients just like her!
Many thanks to our friends at Central Market for their generous $150,000 donation to Scottish Rite for Children. They also donated over 480 gourmet goodies to our wonderful staff. We are grateful for your continued support!
