Helping Every Child Feel Like an All-Star

Evernorth Health Services and their Specialty Pharmacy, Accredo Support the Miracle League in St. Louis

The Miracle League All-Star Game is a celebration of young athletes with disabilities, bringing together players from across the country for a weekend of joy, inclusion, and baseball. Each year, local Miracle Leagues nominate up to two delegates to take part in this 'once in a lifetime' experience—playing on a custom-designed field and feeling like true All-Stars.

As part of Evernorth Health Services, Accredo® Specialty Pharmacy proudly represented the organization as a sponsor of the 2025 Miracle League All-Star Game. More than a game, the Miracle League empowers children with disabilities to build friendships, confidence, and skills that last a lifetime.

Creating Impact through Partnership

The Gateway Region YMCA played a pivotal role in hosting the event at its newly constructed Adaptive Sports Complex in St. Louis. Designed to accommodate athletes of all abilities, the facility served as the perfect backdrop for a weekend of celebration and connection.

Through collaboration with sponsors including Evernorth and our specialty pharmacy, the YMCA helped create an experience that reflected shared values of inclusion, compassion, and support.

Rooted in St. Louis, Reaching Nationwide

Our specialty pharmacy’s commitment to supporting individuals with complex and chronic conditions is deeply rooted in its St. Louis-based team. That local connection was on full display throughout the All-Star Game weekend, where Evernorth and Accredo helped bring a meaningful experience to life for families from across the country.

That connection was especially meaningful for team members like Susan Ratz, whose daughter took part in the event:

“This weekend gave our child the chance to feel seen, celebrated, and part of something bigger. Watching my daughter take the field with joy and confidence was a moment I’ll never forget. As a parent and a member of the Accredo team, it was incredibly meaningful to see our organization help make this experience possible—not just for my family, but for so many others.”

Highlights from the Event

The Miracle League All-Star Game weekend was filled with unforgettable moments—from the excitement of the welcome reception to the energy of game day and the joy of the awards gala. Athletes arrived from across the country, each greeted with cheers, high-fives, and a sense of belonging that defined the entire experience.

Evernorth’s presence was felt throughout the weekend with Accredo team members volunteering on-site, helping coordinate logistics, and cheering from the sidelines as athletes took the field. Branded signage and support materials underscored the organization’s commitment, but it was the personal connections—between families, volunteers, and players—that truly stood out.

These moments—big and small—captured the spirit of the Miracle League and the impact of inclusive events. For Accredo team members, especially those from the St. Louis area, it was a powerful reminder of why this work matters.
