Ways to Help

The Wishing Well Project

Special Fundraising Project

The Senior Board of Children’s Hospital has adopted a project called “Wishing Well.” The goal of the program is to involve local school children in a community service project for the benefit of the patients of the hospital. The logo adopted for this project is represented by the hospital logo depicted within a copper colored penny surrounded by the term “Pennies for Healthy Kids”.

Schools who participate in this project will organize the project within their schools with the help of a Senior Board Representative. Children will be asked to bring pennies to their school during a particular time of the school year. The pennies collected will be donated to Children’s Hospital.

The Senior Board Representative will provide the school with promotional material and general information throughout the duration of the school project. At the conclusion of the project, the Senior Board Representative will work with the school to collect the pennies and see that they are properly deposited.

The Senior Board Representative will also work with the school to arrange for tours of the hospital. The hospital is also happy to provide an individual who will visit with the school to make a presentation on the project and the hospital.
