“KIDS HELPING KIDS” PROGRAM 
 

Starting today through May 31, the James Madison Intermediate and FDR families will be participating in the “Kids Helping Kids” Program.  What could be more wonderful than seeing children help other children? 
 

A number of years ago, the JFK Medical Center Foundation (Edison, NJ) created “The Children’s Fund” to help enhance the pediatric services at JFK.  Such programs have included the creation of the “Fast Track” Pediatric Emergency Room, the Children’s Neurological Center, the Pediatric Rehabilitation Program, etc.  As a result, JFK records over 30,000 pediatric visits annually! 
 

Recently they added the ‘’Kids Helping Kids’’ program . . . a program with a very ‘’personal touch.’’  The hospital can be a frightening place, not only for patients, but for visitors as well.  For children, experience is intensified by the visible anxiety they may see on the faces of their parents or loved ones.  This program helps JFK to alleviate that anxiety by providing a simple gift to all children who come to JFK – as a patient or as a visitor.  Once a gift is presented, children are quickly relaxed and distracted from their surroundings.  As parents, when we see our child’s tension eased, our own anxiety diminishes.  The gesture is simple but becomes extraordinary . . . especially when it’s explained that the gift is from another child in town. 
 

The toys that are to be donated must be "hospital appropriate".  By that, we mean something small, manageable, quiet and with minimal parts.  Some suggestions are: cars and trucks, board games and hand-held games, squeaky toys (for infants), activity/puzzle books, etc., and dolls and action figures.  The hospital requests no plush or stuffed animals.  All gifts should be unwrapped.    
 

If you would like to participate, please send in your donation to your child’s homeroom teacher any time during the month of May. 
 

In the “Spirit of Giving” . . . Thanks in advance for participating in this heartwarming project and for helping to teach our children the importance of giving.
