Letter from the President

  • Madison-Strode

I’m so excited and truly honored to serve as the 2026-2027 President of the Women’s Auxiliary to Children’s Medical Center Dallas. Being blessed with this amazing opportunity to work alongside the incredible women of the Auxiliary and the remarkable team at Children’s Health is such a privilege. Since 1962, our members have raised more than $32 million to support the Children’s Health mission to make life better for children, and I’m proud to be part of that legacy.

This past year was another incredible one. Together, we raised $2 million to support programs like Pediatric Mental Health, Pet Therapy, the Employee Care Fund, research, and so much more. We also continued making great progress toward our $5 million commitment for the new Dallas Pediatric Campus, which will become Moody Children’s Hospital when it opens in 2031. It’s deeply exciting and humbling to know the work we’re doing today will make a difference for kids and families for years to come.

I’m especially grateful to the incredible women who have led this organization before me. Their passion, leadership, and dedication have built such a strong foundation, and I’m thankful for their continued support and endless inspiration. I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together this year.

One of my favorite things about the Auxiliary is that there are so many ways to get involved. Whether you’re delivering treats to hospital staff, serving a meal to families spending New Year’s or Mother’s Day at the hospital, or volunteering at one of our signature events, every act of service makes an impact. I also hope you’ll join us at some of our favorite events this year, including the Red Ball Rally Pickleball Tournament, Breakfast with Santa Spectacular, Mahjong Night, and Family Night at Six Flags. There really is something for everyone!

Sincerely,

Madison Strode
