Yoli Alvin, President of the Alyssa Alvin Foundation for Hope and Michael Munro, Donor & Sponsor of La Fiesta de Musica fundraising event delivered 50 Alyssa Starter Art Kits (SAKs) to Advocate Children’s Hospital in Park Ridge, IL on Friday April 29, 2022.
Michael and Yoli met with Summer Brunson, Art Therapist, who will give the Alyssa SAKs to the teens and young adult patients.
Summer interned at Advocate Children’s Hospital and became aware of the Alyssa Alvin Foundation for Hope while working alongside Katie. Summer said, “the Alyssa Starter Art Kits are very professional art kits that the teens like to receive and enjoy the high-end art materials.”
A variety of 7 different art kits were received such as coloring book kits, drawing kits, journal kits, acrylic and watercolor paint kits, marker, and colored pencil art kits. The art materials allow the young people to be creative and express themselves in a fun way while being treated for their illnesses.
We are always happy to provide these professional starter art kits in memory of our precious daughter, Alyssa, and her passion for art, music, and life.
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.
