What a week! Our Asthma Summer Camp wrapped up, and our hearts are full. These kids laughed, learned and left a little braver and ready to breathe easier. Thank you to every family, volunteer and team member who made it possible.

Some of our best surgeons traded scalpels for spatulas, and the results were mouthwatering.

At our BBQ Against Cancer, the Post-op Pitmasters fired up the grills behind Our Lady of the Lake Children's Health to serve up something bigger than lunch: hope.

Every plate supported Hogs For The Cause whose generosity makes our Hogs for the Cause Family Support Home possible. There, families can stay free of charge during a child’s treatment.

And on BBQ day, every family staying at Hogs House ate for free.

The smoke is still rolling. As the Post-op Pit-masters continue fundraising efforts, we're grateful for everyone helping support families during some of their toughest moments.

🎄☀️ Christmas in July brought holiday magic to our patients! ☀️🎄

Smiles filled the halls as the Bella Bowman Foundation delivered gifts to patients throughout the hospital, spreading joy and creating special memories for children and families.

Adding to the excitement, the Bryn & Harrison Thompson Memorial Foundation partnered in the celebration by providing American Girl Dolls to patients, making the day even more memorable.

A special thank you to both foundations for their generosity and to our Child Life team for helping coordinate visits and creating meaningful experiences for our patients.

Together, we turned a summer day into a holiday celebration filled with kindness, comfort and cheer. ❤️🎁
