Holiday Hugs 2007
The "Reindeer Brigade" surprised patients at Texas Children's Hospital and Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital with a holiday gift. Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center employees visited the hospitals to deliver teddy bears as part of the Holiday Hugs program. Tied to each bear was a note of well-wishes and holiday cheer from a gold-level donor. Donors were invited to write their holiday wishes for patients throughout the month of December.
