ROBERT REID CABRAL HOSPITAL, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
June 15, 2009Zoe Prieto Comments Off on ROBERT REID CABRAL HOSPITAL, DOMINICAN REPUBLICThe president Zoe Prieto and the Vice President Roy Valdes with a group of Students from West Minster Christian School visited the hospital the 15th day of June 2009 where they distributed over 100 coloring books and colors donated by Publix. They were given in a green reusable bag donated by Citibank, these children were either waiting for surgery or had surgery and the parents were so thankful that we had brought these gifts.
This hospital entertainment for the children is one TV for about 10 children, and all the children are together in a big area no private rooms. Keep in mind that these children have been diagnosed with cancer. As a cancer survivor, I’ve experience how hard it is to live and go through surgery, I can’t imagine having to go through the pain and recovery in a room with 10 other people. Our goal for this hospital is to help the children by providing more adequate entertainment such as; reading books, coloring books, colors, puzzles, word search, etc.
Your donations will help us provide these items and enable us to make this experience less dramatic for these children and continue to put a smile on their face.
