A delivery of 50 Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) was made to the Ronald McDonald House near Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago on Friday, April 22, 2022.
This delivery was made by AAFH Board Member Daniel Guerrero, Alyssa’s cousin and Yoli-AAFH President and Alyssa’s Mom. Emmaleigh Dawson received an assortment of art kits such as drawing, acrylic paints, watercolor paints, journal and coloring book kits.
This RMH is the site where we have celebrated Alyssa’s birthday in July for the last several years. We remember the peace Alyssa felt sitting on their rooftop gazing out over Lake Michigan and we like to visit the memorial brick there that we had installed in her memory. It brings us some level of peace while also reminding us of the importance of the Foundation’s mission.
We know that Alyssa still inspires us in bringing hope to other young patients who enjoy art and music activities while they face their own life-threatening illnesses.
Your donations make it possible for us to bring these professional starter art kits to young patients going through their medical journey. Please donate today by clicking here.
