Kristin Whitaker hasn't added a story.
In memory of our amazing Angelic McClellan Keirnes (1981-2013), we are raising money to benefit locals with Cystic Fibrosis and collecting expressions of appreciation for staff the University of Utah Hospital where Angie was treated .
Patients with Cystic Fibrosis regularly spend extended stays in the hospital. The expense of travel, the monotony of their hospital routine, being separated from family and friends...they face so many challenges, not to mention the disease itself!
The month of March is both the month Angie entered this world and the month she left it. So to honor her, we are launching a campaign to raise money to support others with Cystic Fibrosis at the hospital where she spent so many of her days. We want to encourage Angie's friends and fellow patients who are still fighting their battles. A little encouragement. A little distraction. A little celebration. Angie knew these things mattered and she did so much to spread cheer.
All of the money raised will go to benefit patients with Cystic Fibrosis at the University of Utah Hospital. Depending on the amount raised, some ideas are: Gas cards to help pay for travel. Gift cards for treats for special occasions like birthdays and holidays (have you had to spend those in the hospital?) Electronic devices (gaming systems, tablets, etc.) that patients can use during their stays. Anything that may add some sparkle to their stay.
THREE WAYS TO GET INVOLVED
- Say Thanks: We want to thank the hard working hospital staff who make patients' stays bearable, who work hard to get them feeling better, and who keep their spirits up. Have you been influenced by someone with Cystic Fibrosis or by one of these caregivers directly? We are collecting notes that will be delivered to University of Utah Staff along with a thank you gift on March 10th (Angie's birthday.) We want them to know their efforts matter, even after someone passes. Their dedicated care endures and inspires. You can add your voice to ours and help make this gift memorable. Message us at heavenlyhygienics@gmail.com or send it via facebook and put Angie in the message subject.
- Treat Yourself and Help the Cause: For the entire month of March, Heavenly Hygienics is offering a commemorative special on their Angelique soap, named for Angie. Buy a bar \ receive a free Angel charm and a $1 donation will be made to this fund. Buy an "Angel Box" (an all natural spa package) and Heavenly Hygienics will donate $5. Find more details at www.heavenlyhygienics.com
- Donate Directly: donate any amount directly to the fund using this page.
Follow our progress on our sponsor's facebook page: www.facebook.com/heavenlyhygienics where we will announce the amounts raised, hold drawings with donated prizes for contributors, and update you with pictures!
Thanks for your support! May her memory make us all better people and may we all be closer to our angels!
