This Halloween, staff and community members can help bring comfort and joy to children receiving care at our Hospital through a new partnership between Spirit Halloween and the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation. From now until October 31, donations made at the Spirit Halloween store in the Memorial Ave Walmart parking lot will go directly to Child Life Services, helping children and families navigate the stress of hospital visits through play, education, and coping strategies. With the support of our Child Life Specialists, children can feel safe, comforted, and most importantly, still like kids even during medical procedures.

You can get involved by donating at checkout, rounding up your purchase or giving $1, $2, $5 or more. Donations also come with fun recognition opportunities like writing your name on a star, receiving a bracelet, or being entered to win your costume. You can also use the coupon attached below to save 10% on your purchase, and Spirit Halloween will donate that same 10% back to the Foundation.

Let’s come together as a community this Halloween to make a difference for the children and families at TBRHSC.
