Log-a-Load For Kids To Present Check For Over $51,000 to Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital
PENSACOLA, Fla. – Log-A-Load for Kids will present a check for $53,745 to Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital on Thursday, Aug. 24, at noon in the Sacred Heart Administration Board Room.
Sponsored by the Florida Forestry Association, the Panama City and Pensacola branches of Log-A-Load for Kids conducted two annual events to raise funds to help Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital meet the needs of sick and injured children in Northwest Florida and South Alabama. This past May, the Panama City branch held the 11th Annual Log-a-Load For Kids Classic at the Sunny Hills Golf Club and the Pensacola branch held their 10th Annual Log-A-Load For Kids Bass Fishing Tournament at the Swamp House Marina & Landing. This year, they were able to increase their combined grand total by 27 percent.
Since 1995, Log-a-Load For Kids has been a loyal friend of Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital by raising a combined $428,544. The donations supported the purchase of pediatric patient beds, the purchase of vital pieces of equipment used in the Infant/Toddler Unit, and the provision of homemade isolette covers for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital is Northwest Florida’s only medical facility dedicated to the care of sick and injured children. Children’s Hospital offers a range of children’s services in partnership with Nemours Children’s Clinic, which provides many pediatric specialists to the region.
