Komoka-Kilworth

The Optimist Club of Komoka-Kilworth became aware of a need at Childrens Hospital that was the focus of a recent article in the London Free Press.  On April 21, 2013 we made a donation of 2 iPads to fill that need.

 

Pictured above are club members Larry Balderston and Carolynn Off with Karen G. in the middle. Karen is the Child Life Coordinator at Childrens Hospital in London. Our club donated 2 iPads with cases and iTunes cards to Child Life. The iPads are used in various ways, allowing kids to play games to take their minds off treatments, have face-to-face discussions with family members that are not at the hospital, and just to have fun! We are thrilled to be able to help make things easier for kids while they are in the hospital.
