The December outreach was a simple reminder of what community care really looks likeāpeople showing up and helping in whatever way they can.
Family and friends supported us through donations, sharing our story, prayers, and hands-on help in preparing and distributing the care packages. These quiet, simple acts are what made this outreach possible.
At the heart of this outreach were children undergoing cancer treatmentākids who spend more time in hospitals than playgrounds, whose days revolve around checkups, waiting rooms, and treatments that ask too much of such young bodies. The care packages were small, but they were meant to bring a bit of comfort, distraction, and softness into a very hard season.
We initially planned to give 40 care packages with a simple list. But because of peopleās kindness, the list grew to the point that it wouldnāt fit in the bag š
a good problem to haveš We ended up giving 50 care packages with alcohol, face masks, wet wipes, soap, a toothbrush, toothpaste, snacks (biscuits, cookies, orange juice, banana loaf bread), a coloring book, crayons, a pencil, clay, and a sharpener.
We also shared these blessings with Little Ark Foundation, an NGO that supports pediatric outpatients of NCH, including children with cancer.
