Upcoming Events:

Families Giving Back’s “Spook-tacular” Volunteer Event @ PCH

Date/Time: Saturday, October 22, 2016 10-11am

Location: Rosenberg Building @ Phoenix Children’s Hospital, 1920 E. Cambridge Ave.

Description: Halloween is always a favorite holiday of children. However, for those children who are in the hospital, the holiday can feel a lot more scary than fun. Families Giving Back wants to help make Halloween happy and fun for the special patients at PCH and we need your help!

Volunteers will be able to participate in a variety of activities, including assembling Halloween and fall-themed craft project bags and activity books to be given to the patients at PCH. Volunteers can also decorate a pumpkin with markers etc. to give to a child staying at the hospital. It’s a fun, creative, hands-on way to help bring smiles to the faces of PCH patients and make their Halloween spook-taculuar!

Recommended Age: 4+

Registration for this event will begin the first week in October
