On the day of chemo this last week we had the brothers go take donations to the hospital. On the day of Corban's spinal fluid test and bone marrow exam, he walked into the procedure room and found a new pillowcase and toy sitting on the bed for him. These little toys and gifts made the journey with procedures so much more bearable for Mr. Blue Eyes.
Recently, at one of our favorite stores we noticed a huge clearance sale going on, s o we snatched up some great finds for the
KIDDOS at CITY OF HOPE!
We hope it will give some smiles to those kiddos and brighten their journey.
I called today and asked what other kinds of items they needed. They need boys things: boys Hot Wheels cars, Legos, Bionicles, soccer balls and basketballs, toy trucks, games, pillowcases, sunglasses, fleece blankets and small quilts (about half the size of a twin sheet, washed in Dreft or Ivory Snow, thoroughly dried and individually packaged into Ziploc bags). They also like gift cards for food, gas, Target, and Walmart.
The contact at the hospital is Katie 626 930 5430.
Thanks for sharing this info - I'm always looking for ways for the Cubs to share and give service!!
