Children’s books donation...

Veterans Memorial Hospital recently received a very generous donation of children’s books from Maxwell Moore, son of Andy and Emily Moore of Waukon. For his eighth birthday, in lieu of presents for himself, he requested that his classmates bring a book to be donated to the hospital for children of any age to enjoy. Maxwell is pictured above with many of the books his friends so generously gave him in honor of his eighth birthday. These books have been scattered around into every department of the hospital by the Housekeeping staff to ensure each waiting room and department has a few new books for the young patients to enjoy while visiting the hospital.
