The designer-created trees and vignettes are included in the upcoming Georgetown Jingle event’s silent auction, the funds from which have, in past years, established a pediatric bone marrow transplant unit, in collaboration with Duke University Hospital, funded unique patient rooms that inspire and support the healing process and funded the special initiatives for the Childhood Cancer Survivorship Program.
The funds raised by the 2013 Georgetown Jingle will continue to support the operational and training facilities for the Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. This year the event expands its support to include the growth of Social Worker and Educator support in the pediatric palliative care program to provide the highest quality of life for children and families throughout the course of illness.
