The Alyssa Alvin Foundation for Hope (AAFH) delivered 80 Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) to the Central DuPage Children’s Hospital in Winfield, Illinois and 20 Alyssa SAKs to the Chicago Proton Center on Thursday, July 08, 2021.
The delivery of 100 Alyssa SAKs was received by Mia DeRoin - PEDS/PICU Child Life Specialist. Mia will deliver the 20 Alyssa SAKs to Saige at Proton Center in Warrenville, IL.
Mia, said, “the young patients and their families at CDH Children’s hospital have been really benefiting from utilizing the incredible Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) provided by your foundation. They love the acrylic, watercolor, and adult coloring kits the best. We are absolutely grateful and appreciate the support you provide to our young patients and families”.
We know that the entire Child Life Team will do great work with the teens and young adult oncology patients that they serve at CDH Children’s Hospital & Chicago Proton Center.
Alyssa’s spirit and her love for art and music continue to inspire our efforts. We look forward to serving more young patients in the second half of this year.
