Hi Facebook!
Olivia and Caroline here! We thought we’d give a quick insta intro and explain this exciting project we have been working on! We have both been working in the Healthcare industry for several years now and have seen first-hand the heroic actions Nurses perform daily. Caroline is a Certified Nurse Practitioner and I am a Nutritionist/ soon to be Registered Dietitian.
We created NOLA Nurse Love, a COVID-19 Relief Fund organized to support both local businesses in the greater New Orleans area and healthcare workers! This relief fund has over $5k from your generous donations within 24hrs of being live! With these funds we are purchasing gift cards from New Orleans restaurants, boutiques, fitness studios etc and hand delivering them to local Hospitals and Emergency Clinics for healthcare workers!
This week we will be turning $5,000 worth of donations into 200 gift cards collected from Commanders, Mr. B's, Ralphs Restaurant Group, Port Orleans and Dickie Brennan’s Restaurant Group to the ER and ICU Nurses at Ochsner Medical Center and University Hospital.
Next week our plan is to donate gift cards from Fat Boy's Pizza and Jean Therapy to local Emergency Clinics. We would love to add Blue Oak BBQ to our list of donors for next week!
We will be updating and our page with pictures of our donors and recipients to show what we’re doing with your generous donations!
Thank you so much for following along! We are so excited to help give back to the city and the hero’s we all love so much!
XOXO,
Olivia and Caroline
