Center for Women’s Health Adopts ABC Party
Since 2002, families who used the ABC (A Baby’s Coming) program were treated to a holiday party at the Gateway Health Plaza. This year was no different, although now the families are being served through the Center for Women’s Health, as the two programs have been combined.
Once again, Santa held court on the third floor, and his workshop was opened for children to visit and select a toy. Youngsters were also invited to make a holiday craft, take home a stuffed animal (donated by PetSmart of Vacaville) and, of course, tell old St. Nick what they wanted for Christmas.
According to Mary Jameson, director for Women’s Health Outpatient, 145 families were served, with each receiving a $25 gift card to Target. More than 300 children were signed up for the Dec. 21 visit, and toys, donated by employees, Guild volunteers, managers, directors and the public, were plentiful, filling up numerous exam rooms in the Center for Women’s Health.
“We are truly blessed,” said Mary.
