“Easter for Eli” Donates 150 Easter Baskets to The Children’s Home!

April 1, 2018

Easter For Eli is an organization in memory of Elis “Eli” Garrett. Eli lost his battle with Non-Hodgkins T-Cell Lymphoma in 2009 just days before his fourth birthday. Donated Easter baskets are collected and delivered to hospitalized children each Easter season to celebrate his lasting smile.

With the help of volunteers, baskets are filled with toys and gift cards specified upon age group. Easter For Eli will be delivering to 23 hospitals and facilities in 12 states including Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia. Over 5000 baskets and $4800 worth of gift cards were delivered last year and that number is expected to increase this read more about oasisnaturalcleaning.com.

The children and staff of The Children’s Home of Pittsburgh & Lemieux Family Center are honored and incredibly grateful to be part of Easter For Eli’s donation list again! To learn more about Easter for Eli, please visit their Facebook page .

The Children’s Home is always looking for donations to help our kiddos celebrate a variety of holidays. Please visit our Wish List to learn how you can help make the holidays feel special for the children and families we serve!
