Broward County Property Appraiser Marty Kiar’s Outreach Program in partnership with Rita Case, president CEO of the Rick Case Automotive Group, Golfer Paul Azinger’s Family Compassion Center and One More Child, in partnership with Bealls department stores, made a special delivery to pediatric patients at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Hollywood, FL.
“When I got the call about where I thought these donations would have the most impact, I immediately thought of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital,” said Rita Case. “For children, coming to the hospital can be very frightening for them. We want them to feel at home and be comforted while they are here. That’s what makes this donation so important.”
Patients received toys, puzzles, shoes and blankets, along with beautiful, colorful handmade quilts. Students throughout the country submitted artwork for the quilts that were then made by the loving hands of women throughout the U.S. who weaved the artwork into the quilts, which are donated by One More Child.
