Want to make a BIG difference in our community?
Many Red Devils and families have been looking for opportunities to help during this time, here are 2 requests/needs to support the doctors/nurses/hospital workers that are doing so much right now as well as some Mobile RX Food Pantry patrons. These are simple requests and honor #socialdistancing all while making a BIG difference in our community. Feel free to participate as you wish….
1.
Cards of Gratitude/Encouragement for Windshields:
As you have witnessed, our healthcare community has experienced overwhelming support for our community and we are “leaning in” with new, creative ways to sustain this support. One idea is to place notes of gratitude, encouragement on car windshields. (Due to infection control protocols, we cannot bring them into the hospital at this time). It would be nice to
include a personal message with their first name only, age and town/school
. I realize this may be bit elementary, but may the impact is high.
There is a drop box across the street from Hinsdale Hospital at Tupper Hall (119 N Oak St, Hinsdale). They can simply drive thru the circle drive and place cards in the box
. See picture below.
2.
Protective Coverings for Pantry Guests:
Given the recent recommendation that all individuals wear protective face coverings, we have concerns that our pantry (Mobile RX Food Pantry) guests will not have access to masks and would like to explore ways to resource them with homemade masks. (no Etsy, Pinterest, crafty moms, etc.. ). Do you have any students who might be able to help on this effort? That said,
we don’t want anyone heading out to stores to resource this effort and encourage them to use things around the house
. While there are lots of patterns online, here’s one that offers clear, basic instructions -

There is a drop box for masks at the same location across the street from Hinsdale Hospital at Tupper Hall (119 N Oak St, Hinsdale). They can simply drive thru the circle drive and place the masks in the designated box
. See picture below.
