For Deed 3 we filled up the CHEZ truck with toys and gifts for the kids at CHEO.

Going to the hospital isn’t a fun experience.. but the incredible Child Life Team at CHEO makes every effort to make a child or youth’s experience in hospital as positive as possible. Child life specialists help children and youth cope with the stress and uncertainty of illness, injury, disability and hospitalization.

 

So we asked them what they wanted to help make sure that life remains as normal as possible for children and youth while in hospital.

 

They said LEGO.. LEGO… LEGO and more LEGO!!!

 

Thanks to the Ottawa Police Association, we spend $5,000 and got CHEO a new TV for the waiting room, $1,000 in gift cards, Cricut machines and sooo much lego!
