As each of us begins to feel the unforeseen impacts of COVID-19 on our lives, our workplaces and our community, I am humbled and overwhelmed by your caring spirit and generosity towards Nicklaus Children's Hospital.

As Children's Hospital Week comes to a close, I want to personally share our immense gratitude for the outpouring of support we’ve received from many individuals and the local business community in recent weeks. From personal protective equipment to food and treats for those on the frontlines to much needed financial support to help us keep our children, families and staff safe – your contributions and encouragement have helped us stay hopeful and focused on what we are here to do... to deliver the best care for patients whose illnesses don’t stop because we are battling a pandemic.

Our doctors, nurses and clinical staff are nothing short of heroes. They are working around the clock to provide the medical treatment our young patients desperately need. Knowing that our community is coming together in such a big way to support our people and operations at Nicklaus Children’s keeps all of us moving forward.

Thank you for being a shining light for Nicklaus Children’s and the children we serve.
