An Impressive Team Effort

For Cyndi, an emergency trip to Connecticut Children’s more than 10 years ago meant the difference between life and death. Cyndi, who was 16 at the time, was gravely ill and her organs were shutting down from a fast-moving infection. But thanks to the life-saving care she received at Connecticut Children’s, the New Britain mom is alive and well today and is proud to support the hospital through the Costco Campaign for Connecticut Children’s.

“Costco has always been about connecting with the community,” said Cyndi, who is employed as a supervisor at the New Britain Costco. “Connecticut Children’s is the most prominent children’s health system in our area and is important resource for our members and our communities."
