New Drop Off Location for Mary’s Books

posted by:

So, you probably think our book drive is coming to a close, right? Wrong, we are adding a new drop off location for Mary’s Books. Help support American National Bank in Parker for the month of April as they are so generously collecting books to support the kids at The Children’s Hospital.

Vist American National Bank at 9949 S. Oswego in Parker

Thank you Jessica!

5th & 6th graders give back…

Area 56, made up of 5th & 6th graders at New Hope Presbyterian Church in Castle Rock decided they wanted to be a part of Mary’s Books this year as one of their community projects. These awesome 5th & 6th graders collected 503 books to be donated to The Children’s Hospital. Some of these kids remember being at Children’s for one reason or another, so this project touched them in a special way and they became excited to help other kids who need a distraction from why they are at the hospital. Big thanks go out to all of you awesome kids! You are bringing smiles to so many and you brought our total up to 2,427 books!

That’s a lot of books!

Thank you Philip S. Miller Library in Castle Rock for donating so many wonderful books!

PCV13 now available

The FDA has finally approved the broader version of the Prevnar vaccine designed to prevent some forms of pneumococcal meningitis. The new vaccine will cover 7 additional strains of bacteria to include 13 total. Ask your pediatrician about the PCV13 today and get your child vaccinated. This vaccine doesn’t cover the strain of bacteria that killed our daughter….but it’s a start in the right direction.
