SVMC Emergency Department Associates Send<br />
Care Packages to Troops<br />
Brenda White, RN at <strong>St</strong>. Vincent’s emergency<br />
department, had such an overwhelming sense <strong>of</strong><br />
gratitude for our troops serving abroad that she<br />
decided to give back. White told her co-workers about<br />
wanting to ship care packages to our troops <strong>and</strong> soon<br />
she had her own Army <strong>of</strong> helpers gathering items to<br />
donate to soldiers!<br />
Their gifts <strong>of</strong> toiletries, snacks <strong>and</strong> many other<br />
niceties filled six boxes – one that was completely<br />
filled with chocolate! The associates also made small<br />
<strong>and</strong> large greeting cards, filled with special messages<br />
<strong>of</strong> gratitude <strong>and</strong> encouragement. The care packages<br />
were shipped through Harvest Ministries to a<br />
squadron with Jacksonville troops in Afghanistan.<br />
Pictured with some <strong>of</strong> the care packages sent to Afghanistan are SVMC ED <strong>and</strong> administrative staff<br />
Moody Chisholm, D.Y. Simmons, Enola Goodman, Am<strong>and</strong>a Mann, Dr. Fulton, Dr. Gilberstadt,<br />
Lauren Cramer, Carlisha Cooler, Annetta Gilbert, Sharon Cothren, Lisa Zatkos, Janice Brown <strong>and</strong><br />
