PROJECT K.I.A.N.
Details
Each child admitted to the Northern Arizona Healthcare (NAH) hospital in Flagstaff, AZ. is given a new stuffed animal to comfort them during their stay and to help take their minds off the often-painful medical procedures they must endure.
The supply of stuffed animals is always in need of replenishment, so, Darlene and I created “Project K.I.A.N.” (K.I.A.N. stands for Kids in Affection Need). It also happens to be the name of one of our grandsons who has seen more than his fair share of hospitals at a very young age. He has a favorite stuffed animal, a hippo named “hippoleo”. Hippoleo was always a great comfort to him on his many hospital stays.
We conduct a year-round drive to replace the hospital’s supply of stuffed animals. If you’d like to contribute you can:
- Send us a check or stuffed animals to our address below or
- Donate directly by going the NAH site and select Project K.I.A.N. from the drop-down menu. https://www.nahealth.com/office-philanthropy/
Your donation will greatly be appreciated, and your generosity will certainly brighten the hospital stay of a child admitted to the Northern Arizona Healthcare (NAH) hospital.
Rick and Darlene Rokosz are the Co-founders/Coordinators “Project K.I.A.N.”
