We hosted a couple of Teddy Bear Packing parties in Downers Grove and Chicago to get more adorable Teddy Bears in the hands of patients for this winter season.  We love the energy our young volunteers bring to our program!  We donated 350 Teddy Bear Kits to Holiday Heroes just before Christmas.

A huge thank you to our new volunteers from Chicago! With your help, we packed 170 activity kits for Holiday Heroes' fall activity boxes. Your support truly makes a meaningful impact! 

We had a wonderful time hosting a Teddy Bear Folding Workshop at the Downers Grove Public Library, with a full house of eager participants! Our volunteers had a blast creating soft, cuddly teddy bears from baby washcloths. We hope the towel-folding kits bring joy to the children in the hospital. A heartfelt thank you to Fionatastic Jewelry for their generous sponsorship, making this workshop possible! 

A huge thank you to our dedicated volunteers who powered through the heat and humidity to raise funds for Art for Hope at the Naperville Children's Business Fair. You are the heart of our mission, bringing more smiles to the children and the community we proudly serve! 

A heartfelt thank you to all who participated in our annual T-shirt design contest! Your creativity and ongoing support bring energy to our program and brighten the lives of the patients we serve.
