Meal Fairies Program
When your child is sick, it is all you can think about. Your focus is only on helping your son or daughter get well. Extended stays in the hospital are stressful for everyone. The last thing you usually think about is a healthy meal.
The goal of CJ’s Meal Fairies is to provide healthy meals to family members while their child is hospitalized. But it's more than "just one meal." See what some of our families have to day about their experiences during our Meal Fairies lunches:
"I visited with friends and staff who are having a similar experience...I enjoyed a meal and did not have to purchase anything. I am grateful for the love and support received along this journey."
"I was able to stay close by my daughter while having lunch. Not having to leave the 7th floor gives me peace."
"I am very grateful [for the] fellowship food provides. I feel [the] warmth of Roger [and other] parents sharing humor, laughter, and kindness."
