The Carla Martin Bandage Drive for Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital was officially announced during the February 13 Club meeting. Ms. Barbara Bartolatz Littrell, Community Development Coordinator for Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital was on-hand to talk about the benefits of allowing young patients some control in their treatment even if it is just being able to pick out their bandage.
Ms. Bonnie Geise, from Seafreeze/CityIce and TCT Board Member is the TCT liaison and Bandage Drive coordinator. “The goal is to exceed 2,656 boxes of latex free bandages for this year’s drive” she reported.
All boxes of bandages should be dropped off at the March 13th TCT meeting.
