Disco Balls in Lousiville!

Louisville, KY is the disco balls reign. In fact, 90% of the disco balls in the USA are produced there! Most of the mirror balls are made by National Products on Baxter Ave. The company has been in the disco ball business for over 50 years! We crossed the Ohio river and visited Louisville (KY) earlier today.

 

We could't find any disco balls.... but we did deliver LOTS and LOTS of sheets to Norton Children's Hospital AND the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Kentuckiana - RMHCK!!

 

Norton Children’s Hospital’s cancer care program is one of the oldest oncology programs in the U.S. that has been continuously accredited by the American College of Surgeons’ Commission on Cancer. Backed by nearly 60 years of pediatric expertise, NCCI has a proven cancer care team that integrates the different disciplines of leading cancer specialists, including oncologists, surgeons, nurses, social workers, chaplains, behaviorists, therapists and pharmacists. This skilled, multidisciplinary team is entirely focused on the needs of the child and their family.

 

Top it off with the Ronald McDonald House which is built on the idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on their child’s recovery – not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal, or where they will lay their head at night to rest. This House is just two blocks from Louisville’s downtown hospitals, including Norton Children’s Hospital.

We had a double header!

Today's delivery was extra-special as we brought smiles to kids in TWO hospitals!!  Establishing a new connection at the Children's Hospital University of Illinois and continuing our long friendship with the people of Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago.

The Division of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology at UI Health provides comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services to children and adolescents with cancer, leukemia, sickle cell disease, hemophilia, and other blood disorders. We had the pleasure of meeting their child-life specialists and delivering a 'special request' to some awesome kiddos!!!

We also visited our friends at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago where they are passionate about helping children become happy, healthy adults. It's our honor to take part of these kids journey and hopefully make it a little easier.

Happy Birthday!

Itay Geffen is celebrating a very special birthday today (50 years old!) and sharing the festivities with the kids at Beit Levinstien in Ranana, Israel - delivering a big donation of SHEETS FROM HOME!

To top it all off, today is also Purim, which literally means “lots". Purim is the most raucous holiday on the Jewish calendar. Observance of the holiday begins with dressing up in costume. Part of the holiday also includes giving gifts, called mishloch manoot. It is a kids favorite and we are so thankful that Itay was able to make it extra special for the the kiddos at the hospital!

Happy Birthday Itay!
