As we approach Giving Tuesday on Nov. 28, 2023, we invite you to join us in a unique way of spreading joy – by contributing to Brooke’s Toy Closet!
Brooke’s Toy Closet is a program at TidalHealth Peninsula Regional and TidalHealth Nanticoke that provides new toys to children in the Emergency Departments and Pediatric Units that the children get to keep and take home upon discharge.
The program was named in honor of Brooke Mulford, a young girl who was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, an aggressive form of cancer, in 2009 at the tender age of 4 years old. After a valiant battle, she passed away in June 2017. Brooke had a vision to give toys to kids in the hospital to make their time there a little easier, and that vision is what sparked the creation of Brooke's Toy Closet.
How you can make a difference:
- Purchase a toy: Consider purchasing a toy from our Amazon wish list that will ship directly to Brooke’s Toy Closet or schedule a drop-off at the TidalHealth Foundation by emailing [email protected]. *All toy donations must be new and no bigger than 12”x12”.
- Spread the word: Encourage your friends and family to participate. Share the joy of giving by letting others know about our initiative and sharing our Facebook posts.
- Donate: If you prefer to make a financial contribution, please visit the TidalHealth Foundation's online donation page and choose Brooke’s Toy Closet as the designation, or mail a check directly to the TidalHealth Foundation at 100 E. Carroll Street, Salisbury, MD 21801.
Thank you for being a part of this heartwarming initiative and for all the ways you support TidalHealth!
