PARTY411.COM SENDS HOSPITALIZED CHILDREN'S HEARTS-A-FLUTTER WITH DONATED
PARTIES
Cleveland, Ohio -- Party411.com, an online event planning website, is
sponsoring its 2nd Annual Hearts-a-Flutter
event for hospitalized children on Valentines Day,
February 14th, in cities around the country. Local hospital volunteers will
host these parties for 50 to 200 children, depending on the hospital size.
Party411.com provides decorations, games, toys, and activities.
Participating hospitals include: Baylor University Medical Center of
Dallas, Texas; University of Nebraska Medical Center of Omaha; Children’s
Hospital of Omaha, Nebraska; Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia; Lucile
Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford; Children’s Health Care of Atlanta
at Egleston; Rainbow Babies & Children’s Hospital of Cleveland, Ohio;
Johns Hopkins Childrens Center in Baltimore, Maryland; Seton Medical Center of
Austin, Texas, Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center of New York, Children’s
Memorial Hospital of Chicago, Illinois; Children’s Hospital of Michigan at
Detroit; Children’s Hospital of Boston, Massachusetts; Texas Children's
Hospital in Houston, Texas; Children's Hospitals and Clinics in St. Paul and
Minneapolis, Minnesota; Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center of
Seattle, Washington; Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and St.
Louis Children's Hospital, Missouri.
"We are certainly excited about the initiative of Party411.com,"
says Mary Bowers, Child Life Specialist at Rainbow Babies & Children’s
Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. "Parties like Hearts-A-Flutter normalize
life for hospitalized children and give them something positive to anticipate.
It also gives families the opportunity to share a good experience together at
a time when things can be negative."
Party411.com Founder Sherri Foxman agrees, "Valentine’s Day is one
holiday that belongs to children. Our hearts go out to hospitalized kids with
the hope that they take a well deserved break from the stress of illness by
exchanging greetings and making crafts with each other and their
families."
Party411.com committed to sponsoring Hearts-A-Flutter in the designated
cities since community service and philanthropy are core activities for the
company. People in cities outside of those officially participating are
encouraged to call their local children’s hospitals to initiate similar
parties. Media representatives interested in attending any Hearts-A-Flutter
event may contact Party411.com for more
information.
