Awareness
Calling all Heart Families

Calling all Heart Families

 

Chad and I met with the Florida's Blood Centers (FBC) Donor Development Coordinator last week and discussed how many of our children receive blood products when they have surgery.  The FBC is VERY interested in working with us, and would like to know if there are any families who would like to give a testimony about their child receiving blood.  If there are enough families willing to do so, they are going to try and rent out a conference room at one of the hotels in Viera, cater dinner and provide media coverage of the event.  If this is something that we could get enough people in on, I really think this would help get awareness of CHD out there… Not a lot of people know that CHD takes more of our children than all childhood cancers combined.

 

If you are interested, please email me and let me know so I can contact FBC and let them know how many families we have that are willing to participate.  Please help us get awareness out.  This is a big step in involving the community and I think it will help raise the needed awareness of CHD.

 

Thanks!

Meeting Location CHANGE

I wanted let you all that the location for our meeting has changed.  We ran into a problem with the Viera Pro Health, so we will be moving our meeting to Chad's (our Co-coordinator) work for this month.  We are still trying to  find a place that will allow us to meet monthly and will allow us to bring our children.  The new location will be in Rockledge (so not much farther than Viera).  Below is the address and directions.  The date and time will stay the same (October 22 @ 6:30pm). 

 

Address: 1006 Pathfinder Way, Rockledge, FL 32955 

 

From US1: Head West on Eyester.  Turn right on Pathfinder Way .  It will be the last building on the left hand side.  Company Name: Perfect Meetings. 

 

From I-95: Take exit # 195/ Fiske Blvd.   Keep going North on Fiske until you reach Eyster.  Turn right onto Eyster.  Turn left on to Pathfinder Way .  If you reach Murrell, you have gone too far.  It will be the last building on the left hand side.  Company Name: Perfect Meetings. 

 

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will get back with you as soon as possible!
