I am also trying to raise $500.00 to donate our books to Childen's Lurie Hospital in Chicago. https://www.facebook.com/donate/362518444194086/ This summer we donated from an online fundraiser and this is what the hospital had to say:

Dear Joni,

On behalf of our patients, their families and our staff at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, I would like to sincerely thank you for your contribution. The books arrived this week, are super nice and most of them have already been put into good use.

Your help in creating a better healing environment for children staying with us is greatly appreciated. The kid friendly fun, comfort and cheer that we are able to extend to those in our care would not be possible without the support of generous people like you.

With gratitude,

Justyna
