Ethan & Choco's Book Club

Striving to make access to books and reading a core part of the care that kids receive in the hospital, with the premise that literacy support for children fighting cancer and other life-altering conditions can help promote cognitive health and social connections that are part of thriving through treatment and beyond

ECBC at Miracle Manor

Leave a comment

Ethan & Choco’s Book Club was honored to be part of Miracles for Kids’ holiday party today for CHOC patients and families living at Miracle Manor (a home subsidized by Miracles for Kids for low-income CHOC families with critically ill children). ECBC Board member and bedside reader Susie provided a holiday-themed storytime for the kids and then passed out new, age-appropriate holiday books for all patients and siblings. All books were also packaged with handwritten holiday cards from local elementary and high school students — thank you to Tustin and Placentia students for providing such thoughtful cards. We love adding books and reading to these families’ holiday festivities (and how amazing that during the festivities, Miracles for Kids volunteers are busy decorating each of the family’s apartments for Christmas!). Thank you Miracles for Kids for letting ECBC participate in this event for our 6th consecutive year, thank you Susie for representing ECBC and delivering literary joy, and thank you to those who donated holiday-themed books for the kiddos!

If you haven’t had a chance to donate a holiday book, Ethan is still running our December holiday book drive. Click HERE to donate.
