Thanks for tuning in.

Our Popsicle Place program provides support for families who have kids that have medical complexity.

So that program was developed, we had a family that came to us, and they had a kiddo who I believe was six years old at the time, and he was awaiting his fifth or sixth heart surgery and was having a hard time getting healthy because they were living in their car.
1:49
They were actually at a car camp at one of the local hospitals because his family had had to give up everything in order to pay for his medical care and treatment.
1:58
And so we thought, you know, we can do better than a car encampment for kiddos who have medical challenges.
2:06
And so our Popsicle Place program was born.
2:08
Uh, we're able to offer safe shelter for families that have kids that are going through all sorts of medical challenges.
