There’s still time to make a difference in 2025! 💖

Patient, Marky, spent his very first holiday in the hospital. Your donation today will ensure other families facing the same reality feel hope and joy this season. bit.ly/BCHholidayhope

✨ “Thinking back to that first Christmas, it makes me emotional. Santa came to visit, and we were able to pick out toys to give Marky that had been donated for kids like him. We were provided a warm meal that our extended family could join us for, which was so special. To have that experience was truly a gift.”
– Kassi, Marky’s mother
