*** All donations must be NEW ***
As Rochester’s weather starts to turn cold we are once again partnering with Primetime585 on a Winter Wear and Toy drive! We are accepting donations of ***NEW*** Winter Wear (hats, gloves, coats, snow pants, etc.) and Toys.
Donations will benefit the following:
Golisano Children’s Hospital – Sickle Cell Unit
PrimeTime585 has adopted the Sickle Cell Unit at Golisano Children’s Hospital. Sickle Cell Disease is an inherited blood disorder that is present at birth. It can be diagnosed in children as young as 6 months old. It is a painful disease that can lead to infection, cause strokes, and can require many blood transfusions. While this unit is serving over 150 children, it wasn’t as well known as others, and therefore wasn’t receiving many donations. Primetime585 is working to change that.
Other Beneficiaries
Primetime585 has also adopted several city and rural schools, as well as homeless centers which house kids, to provide winter wears and toys.
