Buckets of Happiness |
| |
| Buckets of Happiness supplies disadvantaged pediatric patients with personal hygiene and fun/educational items to assist them during their hospital stay. JA members prepare the buckets filled with the personal hygiene products, books, crayons, small toys, clothing and good snacks.
This project has been combined with another project called “Special Deliveries.” Junior Auxiliary members work with the “Welcome Baby” program through the Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse. These young mothers are provided with baby items they will need for the baby when they leave the hospital. They also receive a car seat to bring the baby home in if they do not have one. This is a very worthwhile project and has only been at Biloxi Regional Hospital in the past, but the Junior Auxiliary plans to bring the program to Ocean Springs Hospital this year. The budget for this project is $2,500. |
