Hospital Employees Union Gives Back

Reading Time: 1 minute

Members of the Hospital Employees Union (HEU) love to give back by donating a portion of their union dues to NRGH. On April 5, a few members presented Child Life Specialist Sandra Hirota with a donation of $500 in support of children’s toys and specialty items for the Paediatric department. Brave children who undergo medical treatments have the opportunity to feel like a kid again by being given the gift of play during trying times in their lives.
We are deeply grateful to the HEU for their care and consideration.
