Shady Grove Hospital project

Hi everyone! Our latest update is to tell you about our Shady Grove Adventist Hospital Project, which we finally completed just before the winter holidays.

Some of our bouquets

If you remember from a previous post, our local project was making tissue paper flower bouquets to donate to the pediatrics division at the hospital. We worked on this with members of our club at Richard Montgomery High School and at home and after several weeks, made it to a grand total of 250 flowers! We also decorated bottles to use as vases for the flowers.

Shady Grove Adventist Hospital is a 336-bed hospital located in Rockville, Maryland. Opened in 1979, it serves thousands in Montgomery County. It is part of the Adventist Health Care system, a non-profit health care provider that includes hospitals, emergency centers and rehabilitation centers in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. It specializes in pediatric and maternity care, with the only Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and Pediatric Emergency Department in Montgomery County. You can learn more about what the hospital does at their website.

   We donated our tissue paper bouquets to the Pediatrics division to brighten up the hospital and add some cheer. Thanks to all Crafts4Change members for their hard work, and to Shady Grove Adventist for making this project possible!

In other news, Crafts4Change is now at work on our next project, making beaded strawberry charms. Also, don't forget to check out our SNSD T-shirts and sweatshirts, which we are selling to raise funds for charity, at our website. We are hoping to launch a new and improved website very soon, and we will let you know when its ready!

As always, if you want to get involved or have any questions, comments or ideas email us or check us out on Twitter and Facebook.
