In August of 2013 50 bags were donated to Cardinal Glennon full of school supplies for needy children.
As the 2013-2014 school year approached the Hope 4 Hannah Foundation decided that it would be important to help out some of the children in the hospital with school supplies. The Foundation was able to purchase 50 bags with their logo on them and stuff them full of various school supplies. Each bag contained over $30 worth of supplies that would help the children be successful in school. After receiving the bags the nurses sent us the following email:
Hi Quirk Family!
I have a few photos from your donation this week! We are so thrilled and this
could not have come at a better time! The Costas Center has been giving out the
bags to their patients, and the Child Life Department has been giving the bags
to our chronic patients. Some of our chronic patients do not have the resources
to even buy a notebook for school (and most of our patients start school on
Monday)!
I have attached 2 photos for you. The first is of the Costas Social Worker,
Aleeza and the Child Life Specialist on 3 South, Kim. The second photo is of our
Child Life Specialist, Nicole, taking bags to her chronic patients (Note:
She also has on a "Keep Calm and Call Child Life" shirt that we thought was
pretty fitting).
Thank you for all that you are doing to help the patients at Cardinal
Glennon, we truly appreciate your kindness.
Thank you again!
