<strong>2012</strong> was unlike any o<strong>the</strong>r year in our 100-year history. Wecelebrated a milestone anniversary. We launched our mostambitious capital campaign on record. And we welcomedpatients, as well as <strong>the</strong>ir families, into <strong>the</strong> largest clinicalexpansion ever undertaken at <strong>Arkansas</strong> Children’s <strong>Hospital</strong>.Yet, while all this transpired around us, our work continued.While <strong>the</strong> ribbon was cut on <strong>the</strong> new South Wing, a surgical teamremained focused on <strong>the</strong> task at hand.While we ga<strong>the</strong>red to announce our $160 million Century of Possibilitycampaign, research scientists continued <strong>the</strong>ir search for answers.While pediatric expertise arrived in nor<strong>the</strong>ast <strong>Arkansas</strong> with <strong>the</strong> openingof our second ACH/UAMS Centers For Children, a trauma teamresponded as Angel One arrived on our main campus in Little Rock.It was a year in which we opened newdoors, broke old barriers, and challengedourselves like never before.But more than anything, it was a yearof unprecedented caring.Looking back, we realize what made this year truly unique was that inmany ways, it was like every year in our history.1
