Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) were delivered to the Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital in St. Petersburg, FL on Monday, August 3, 2020. Executive Officers of Alyssa Alvin Foundation for Hope: Yoli Alvin-President, George Alvin-VP/Treasurer and accompanied by Alyssa’s grandmother, Carmen Alvin. We were greeted by Ryan, a Child Life Staff member.
100 SAKs of five different variations were donated to the hospital. The SAKs consisted of acrylic, watercolor, drawing, ocean coloring books and journal kits. These kits will help bring a bit of joy and hope to those children going through a difficult time during their treatments for life threatening diseases.
Ryan accepted the SAKs on behalf of Kristen Maier, Director of ChildLife at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital. Kristen and her staff are looking forward to sharing the Alyssa SAKs with the young patients and our brochures with the Oncology nurses and staff to ensure more children are able to take advantage of our music and art gift recipient programs.
