Alyssa SAKs Donated to Lurie Children’s Hospital
45 Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) were delivered to Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago on Monday, December 19, 2022. Various art materials were delivered including coloring, drawing, colored pencils, Copic markers and watercolor art kits. The Alyssa SAKs were accepted by Willow Messier, Art Therapist.
Willow is one of our champion advocates who brings the services that AAFH provides directly to the young patients at Lurie’s. She reminds us how impactful the Alyssa SAKs are to the children and young adults that receive them.
As the holidays are upon us, we reflect both on the joys of the season as well as the struggles the young patients face. We are grateful that we can provide a happy and creative outlet of musical instruments and professional art materials for these patients. This is the mission of our Foundation and the legacy of our daughter, Alyssa.
