Great news from our friends at Barco’s Nightingale’s Foundation

Thursday, January 5th, 2012 BY Brie

Brie-H

We recently received a letter from Michael Donner, the president of Barco’s Nightingale’s Foundation, that outlined all of the wonderful things they were able to accomplish in 2011. We are so proud to be a supporter of this organization and the amazing work that they do and wanted to thank our customers who also contribute to the Foundations goals. Here is a recap of services were provided in 2011 – and an inspiring look towards this year’s goals!

  • The Foundation was able to help another 600 children with life changing surgeries with Resurge International.  This brings the total with Resurge to 1,000 children.  Quite a milestone of achievement in only 2 years.
  • The Foundation was able to provide housing at Ronald McDonald House Charities for 200 evenings for families in need.
  • Also able to send nearly 120 children with cancer to go to The Ronald McDonald’s Camp for Good Times.
  • The Foundation has recently partnered with Hispaniola Mountain Ministries with our first solar water well in Haiti.  This well should be competed by March 2012.  We are hopeful to build a total of 4 wells in 2012.
  • In April of 2011 was the first Nightingale’s Foundation Walk .  It was very successful with 424 attendees and raising nearly $100,000.  Another Walk is planned for April 1,2012.
  • For those not familiar with Barco’s Nightingale’s Foundation – this organization works with a mission to ” elevate and promote nursing, while also honoring the spirit of the profession by focusing our funding on helping children. Nursing has long been regarded by the general public as the most trusted and respected profession in America. There is a shortage of nurses and it is our hope that our Foundation’s efforts will appeal to the younger generations of women and men who can help avert this crisis in care. We deeply salute their work in our efforts to help the children to whom they’re most dedicated.”

    Thanks for all of your support for this wonderful organization and help in achieving a strong force in the year 2012!
