THANK YOU, we greatly appreciate your support of the Foundation’s Christmas event for 2023! Because of YOUR generosity, we were able to provide 42 children with Amazon Gift Cards, Christmas stockings and Teddy Bears. We had 16 families at the hospital this year. We were also able to provide the parents with an Amazon gift card as well. We passed out a total of 58 cards to patients, siblings, and parents.

In keeping with our tradition, we also provided the families on the 3 East cancer unit with a meal of turkey, dressing, green beans, mashed potatoes, and a slice of pie. We served 75 meals. Special thanks to Hoover’s on Manor Road for the meals. If you can please stop by and get a great meal and thank them for their support. Also like to thanks Bush’s Chicken for providing that dinner for the wrapping party on the 23rd!
