Treats for Caregivers Program

Four times a year, FGCH organizes special deliveries to the Bone Marrow Transplant Nursing Unit at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. These thoughtful gestures are designed to show appreciation and support for the dedicated healthcare professionals who provide critical care to young patients undergoing bone marrow transplants.
FGCH helps to create a positive and appreciative atmosphere for these essential healthcare workers.

Mother’s Day Drive-Thru Floral Boutique

On May 1, 2021, FGCH hosted an incredible Mother’s Day Drive-Thru Floral Boutique. Our guests treated their very special moms to beautifully planted hydrangeas, ferns and spring florals in rustic wooden boxes. To make it even more special, many moms were honored by a donation to CHLA in their name to help make a difference in the life of a child.
