Have you heard of the No Show Ball put on by Forrest Spence Fund - Chattanooga? Several of our trach families, as well as many other families at Children's Hospital at Erlanger have benefited directly from the partnership Forrest Spence Fund has with Children's. If you're looking for a no-stress meal April 25th, be sure to order a cooler (in advance)! The coolers feed 4 people, and the impact you make is so much larger than just purchasing a meal for yourself. You're truly touching families who are inside of the hospital navigating some very stressful situations. Coolers can be delivered within Hamilton County, or picked up at one of 3 locations. Check out their tasty menu and pickup locations below:
"The No Show Ball is a play on the truth that most of the fundraisers we participate in are events you have to attend. But on the day of the No Show Ball, the event comes to you in the form of a dinner in a cooler bag dropped off at your door. Dinner inside the cooler will feed 4. Coolers can be purchased for yourself, for someone else as a gift, or for a family in the hospital. Gifted coolers can be anonymous or include your name as the sender. Send one to a neighbor, teacher, babysitter, grandparent, homebound friend, or new parents!
