Radiology Adopt a Family Fundraiser

Each year, theĀ RadiologyĀ departmentĀ historically “adopts” a family for Christmas.Ā Our adopted familiesĀ shareĀ a history with Cincinnati Childrenās.Ā The families we typically adopt are dealing with the normal demands of daily life with children when suddenly their family experiences devastating news regarding a child. Now, instead of their family holiday-time traditions, theyĀ mustĀ learn to adjust to a new normal of doctor/clinic visits, procedures, and treatments,Ā either knowing or not knowing what the outcome will be.Ā
“We make a living by what we get.Ā We make a life by WHAT WE GIVE”Ā
-Winston S. ChurchillĀ
The goal of ourĀ Radiology family is to help brighten the holiday season for our adopted family while they attend to the special needs of their child. After learning specific needs, age and gender, a wish list isĀ createdĀ and the collection process begins. A group of employeesĀ collectĀ from a variety of divisionsĀ and locations throughout Radiology to assist with the donation process.Ā
Again, this year, the MRIĀ division will be helping to coordinate. Itās been such a rewarding experience to witnessĀ all ofĀ your kindness with this annual fundraiser.Ā Our goal is to brighten the holiday season for our adopted family while they attend to the special needs of their child/children.Ā
