We’re calling on all kids who want to make a difference! Encourage your kids to design a card, write a note, or produce a video. Let patients know you hope they feel better, bring a smile to elderly residents, or remind health care workers you are grateful. Then, post your children’s creations on HHF’s Facebook page.
