In 1987, the hospital earned the prestigious designation of CHILDREN' S MIRACLE NETWORK HOSPITAL serving children in 14 parishes throughout Central Louisiana. The Foundation is a freestanding, tax- exempt organization. Its independent governing board assures that the donors' wishes are followed, recognition is given and funds are well utilized. Through the charitable support of the community, the Foundation has been able to assist the Hospital in implementing and growing state- of-the- art pediatric centers of excellence and delivering cost- effective treatment quickly and safely to local families. Because of this community' s generous support, our hospital continues to make significant strides in medical technology and education to provide the highest level of pediatric healthcare services to the residents of Central Louisiana. Type of Program/ Activity: Children' s Miracle Network at CHRISTUS St. Frances Cabrini Hospital Foundation is a 501- 3C not-for- profit recipient of the funds raised through the Walmart Charity Golf Tournament. These funds will directly impact the sickest local children in need of charitable care, lifesaving equipment and in- patient, outpatient and community health services.

( In one sentence) : The goal of this Walmart Charity Golf Tournament is to raise vital monies to fund free health care services and life-saving equipment for Cabrini Hospital' s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Pediatric Therapy Center& 17 School Based Health Centers. If a governmental entity, is the cooperative endeavor or intergovernmental agreement sought pursuant to local services law, joint emergency preparedness, exchange of surplus property for public safety purposes, or other?

How so? : There are a plethora of future benefits for our Cenla citizens. They include:

What are your real and substantial obligations to achieve the proportionate return to the City of Alexandria at some point in the future? : Our obligation to return benefits to the City of Alexandria is realistic as CHRISTUS Cabrini Hospital has been a designated CHILDREN' S MIRACLE NETWORK HOSPITAL for almost 37 years and plans to continue its services for another 37- God willing.

CABR NI Foundation February 9, 2026 City of Alexandria— City Council City Hall Dear Alexandria City Council, You have been so generous to our tiniest local patients in the past through an in- kind donation of the Links on the Bayou golf course and fees. Regarding this year' s May 21, 2026 Children' s Miracle Network CMN) Walmart Golf Tournament, it is important to highlight that this is the only golf tournament hosted by Walmart Market# 134 ( overseeing 11 stores and 5 Central Louisiana parishes) that benefits our CMN miracle families and services at CHRISTUS St. Frances Cabrini Hospital. It is specifically raising monies to support our pediatric patients in the Cabrini Neonatal Intensive Care, Pediatric Therapy Center& School Based Health Centers. The only expense that the tournament incurs is the cost of the Links on the Bayou fees and course. If the Cityof Alexandria is able to waive the fees through an in- kind donation again, 100% of your donation will impact the lives of local children. It is with our humble and sincere inquiry that our not- for-profit 501- C3 CMN Hospital asks your approval.

This section seeks information concerning the basis in law for your request under the limited potentially permissible purposes for the City of Alexandria— which may include athletics; recreational activities; cultural or educational activities, such as collaborations with learning institutions, libraries, concerts, art museums and exhibits; parks and playgrounds; and other leisure time and cultural activities and functions of the city. Economic development and advertising/marketing Alexandria or this region is permitted generally only when the activity brings tourism or business to the area which did not already exist or significantly expands activity already in existence. Funding Category* I Educational vi Section IV. Public Purpose and/or Goal of Request. This section seeks information about whether this event is for a" public purpose," a requirement by the state constitution before any action involving public funds or property can be given or pledged. This means a benefit solely of a private nature— such as to private clubs, organizations, and so forth, not tied to performance of a public need or program— are presumptively disallowed by state law and can subject public officials to criminal sanction. Your request should be tied to open public participation. If not open to the public, your request may not be allowed. The City is concerned with its goal to benefit all citizens to the extent possible although benefits for a class of persons may be permissible, such as for the needy. The City must examine the governmental action it takes to ensure pledges of its assets or funds do not benefit one person or private entity disproportionately to the benefit to the overall community.

Proportionality is critical for a public body to give its funds or property. Since this involves taxpayer money, the City of Alexandria has a fiscal responsibility to ensure fairness to all. The City cannot engage in a mere gratuity or giving away of services without a return benefit however, it may help with your request if you produce a measurable result to the City approximating its gratuity to you. Does your request or endeavor involve a nearly equal benefit to the citizens you seek to serve when compared to the money or property expended or sought to be used by the public entity?If so, how?* CLASS asserts that the benefit to the community in terms of economic development, as well as the benefits in terms of health and wellness, and entertainment value FAR exceed the amount of the request for property and in- kind services from the City of Alexandria.
