Caring Beyond the Bedside
"The Snowflake Shop demonstrated that Connecticut Children’s truly cares about families. Having our 6-year-old daughter hospitalized through Christmas was very difficult for our family. While the generosity of those involved in the Snowflake Shop could not bring our child home for the holiday, it brightened the spirits of all three of our children during a challenging time."
