You’re invited to drop joy at Children’s Minnesota this summer. As summer gets into full swing, there's a wonderful opportunity to make an impact on the lives of our patients and families. We've organized our very first Summer Joy Drop in-kind donation drive, and we'd love for you to participate!
More information: https://www.childrensmn.org/support-childrens/giving-to-childrens/other-ways-to-give/in-kind-gifts/#joy-drop
Schedule a time to drop your donations on August 14 at our Minneapolis Specialty Clinic Entrance (please note this is not the main entrance to the hospital). The address is:
2530 Chicago Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55404
Schedule your drop off: https://give.childrensmn.org/page/84442/data/1?utm_source=CMN-Digital&utm_medium=direct&utm_term=A&utm_content=WGIK
This is a chance to spread joy and extra sunshine to our young patients and their families during a time when they might be missing out on typical summer fun. Based on the hospital's current needs, here are some of the most-requested items that can bring comfort and engagement:
➡️Art supplies: crayons, markers, modeling clay, Play-Doh
➡️Books: board books for our youngest patients
➡️Comfortable clothes: most needed size adult medium, but all sizes needed
➡️Toys/activities: Lego sets (under $30, 2-in-1 sets preferred), Squishmallows
Every contribution, big or small, will directly benefit Children’s Minnesota patients and families. Your generosity can bring joy, provide comfort and help make their summer a little brighter.
