My Story…
Sutter Health Canine Unit: Department of Protective Services East Bay Oakland and Berkeley Campus
———————————————————
Some children spend their birthdays, holidays, and ordinary Tuesday afternoons inside hospital rooms. Hospital stays are hard… but childhood shouldn’t stop.
Child Life Programs exist to bring light into those moments, helping to create normalcy and comfort with tough hospital stays for not just them but their entire family.
Our goal? To see which pup (and campus!) can raise the most funds for an INCREDIBLE cause, supporting hospitalized children at Sutter Health Children’s Center in Sacramento and UC Davis Children’s Hospital. 💛
You can support in three ways:
🐾 Donate online (Click on SUZZY K9 KADO)
🐾 Walk/run with us in person! 2miles to Marie’s Donuts, eat a donut, then 2miles back to the park. Easy peasy!
🐾 OR share the link to our team to help spread the word!
Your donation helps fund:
🎗️ Beads of Courage
🎶 Music Therapy
🎬 24/7 movie channels
🥽 Virtual reality & augmented reality
🎮 Video game machines & iPads
🎨 Art projects, toys, games & movies
🏃 Exercise equipment
🎉 Holiday celebrations & special events
💛 Cope with medical experiences
📚 Understanding their illnesses
🩺 Prepare for procedures & surgeries
🎈 Experience normal childhood play — even in the hospital
Because sometimes healing isn’t just medicine. Sometimes it’s music. Sometimes it’s play. Sometimes it’s knowing someone cares.
Let’s rally behind your favorite K9 teams and make a real difference and bring smiles for these children - one donut at a time 🍩💛🐾
