"Thank you for the grant you gave us. It helped during our 2 month hospital stay. Before my son had his BMT, my husband worked full time. 3 days before, they let him go. We were left with nothing except savings. Without your grant, we would got into debt with household bills. So thank you again."

Happy #NationalNursesDay.
