Lights of Love Holiday Fundraiser 2026
We are raising $8,500 to create a Wellness Room at L+M: a quiet, welcoming space where caregivers can step away from the demands of a shift, decompress, and restore their energy before returning to the bedside. Shannon Christian, our Chief Nursing Officer, put it simply:"This Wellness Room is more than a physical space. It is a tangible expression of support for the people who dedicate themselves to healing others. It communicates a powerful message: that the well-being of our caregivers matters."She also notes that professional nursing organizations increasingly recognize caregiver well-being as essential to a resilient workforce and to safe, high-quality patient care. When our caregivers are cared for, our patients feel it.Be a STAR this Holiday Season! Celebrate the special people in your life by sponsoring an ornament on our Christmas tree or a light on our Menorah or Kinara. Honor your children or grandchildren, a friend, a teacher, a favorite nurse or caregiver, or a loved one you're remembering this season. The tree, Menorah, and Kinara will be on display in the hospital lobby throughout the Holiday Season. Every year, our beautifully adorned display elevates the mood of patients, families, and the caregivers who serve them as they both enter and exit the Hospital. Brighten someone’s day by being a star and sharing your light!
