Phoebe issued the following announcement on Dec. 26.
This week, Christian Wise Smith – President of the National Social Justice Alliance based in Atlanta – delivered 50 gift bags to Phoebe for distribution to frontline caregivers.
“We’re down here to show some love and say ‘thank you’ to an impacted hospital in our state,” Smith said. “We do a lot in Atlanta, especially with kids, and we wanted to expand to do something for healthcare workers who have been under such stress. We know a lot of them won’t get to spend Christmas with their families.”
Smith chose to donate to Phoebe after learning of the hospital’s intense battle with COVID-19 through news reports and because he has friends with family connections to Albany. Each gift bag includes a tablet, $50 gift card, drawstring backpack and a copy of a children’s book about the importance of voting that Smith wrote entitled, “Chris & Key Go Vote!”
Phoebe is extremely appreciative of this generous donation that will certainly bring smiles to the faces of some of our frontline healthcare heroes
