The Office of Volunteer and Guest Services at the MUSC Medical Center present a feel-good, heart warming project for any team to take on during the 2008 Day of Caring. Make or purchase Tasty Treats for ICU Families AT THE MUSC MEDICAL CENTER. It's a long and stressful wait when you have a loved one in ICU. People get so tired and run down just waiting. We would love your donations of fresh fruit, snack crackers, fresh baked goodies to offer families in our ICU waiting room. What better time to show you care than the Day of Caring! No training for this project. Make or purchase goodies for ICU families. Wrap them individually or bring in bulk. Either way, we will be happy to pass your tasty Treat and good wishes on to families in need. This opportunity is sponsored by: MUSC Medical Center
