The Alyssa Alvin Foundation for Hope (AAFH) delivered 50 Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) to Northwestern Hospital in Chicago on April 22, 2022.
Alex Kwait, a licensed Clinical Social Worker received the art kits. Alex works with the Inpatient Oncology patients at Northwestern Hospital. Alex indicated that the art kits are very important for the young patients because it gives them something to do while they are admitted there. The donated SAKs were comprised of assorted art materials included coloring book, journals, drawing kits, colored pencil kits, watercolor, and acrylic paint kits.
This type of therapeutic activity helped our daughter, Alyssa, discover another facet of her own creative spirit at a time when she was facing her health challenges.
Alyssa’s love for art and music continue to inspire our efforts and we are honored to carry on her legacy.
