Kickin' it for Kids - Kickball Tournament and Toy Drive

Donate Now

Dear Friends and Family, 

 

Thank you for coming to the page I’ve set up in support of Cleveland Clinic Children's Child Life.

 

For every $10 earned, one child will receive a teddy bear! My goal is to give 200 teddy bears to Child Life!!!


Children today confront a wide variety of stressful and potentially traumatic events that can overwhelm their natural ability to cope and heal. Experiences related to health care and hospitalization can lead to feelings of fear, confusion, loss of control, and isolation that can inhibit their natural development and have negative effects on their physical and emotional health.


Child life specialists are trained professionals who help children cope with the stress and uncertainty of illness, injury, disability, and hospitalization.


Why am I doing this? Because I feel so passionately about Cleveland Clinic Children’s Child Life and the work they do. By supporting my efforts today, you will help them reach their goal to have the children and adolescents they care for back on their feet and living a normal life as quickly as possible.  


I’m very excited to be able to do something fun, enjoyable and challenging, all for a great cause: making children’s lives just a little bit better through world-class medical care and research. This fundraiser is part of the 2017 LRI/EI Wellness Committee (along with the Walker Fitness Center) Cleveland Clinic Children’s 6th Annual Kick Ball Tournament and Toy Drive. This is the 6th year I am organizing this fundraiser and I look forward to doing my part.

 

The Kickball Tournament is new this year! Registration is $40.00 per team (space is limited to only 10 teams). Register in person anytime at the Walker Fitness Center.Teams must consist of 8-11 members and is open to anyone 16 and older (team captain must be a CCF employee). Costumes, team shirts and "war paint" welcome.

 

The tournament takes place Saturday, August 5th, 10:00-4:00 at the CCF Lyndurst Campus, 1950 Richmond Road, Lyndhurst, OH 44124. Rain or Shine!

 

Toy donations will be collected at the registration site and/or at the event. For acceptable donations, please visit https://my.clevelandclinic.org/pediatrics/departments/child-life-services/wish-list.


Join me in doing all we can to support Cleveland Clinic Children’s. I’ve got the hard part. Your part is easy!


Cathy
