donation of clothes, medicine, baby formula, nappies and baby products such as bum cream, soap and shampoo.<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>All the donations were collected internally in a two-month long drive which saw donations from doctors, nurses and other hospital staff.<\/p>\n<p>This was followed by a fun-filled Christmas party, at which hospital staff spent time spoiling the children at the home.<\/p>\n<p>Last Monday the hospital once again showed their support donating building material needed by El-Shammah to renovate their paediatric room.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe donated ceiling boards, doors and gutters, all bought from Silvasons Hardware, in Primrose,\u201d said Karen.<\/p>\n<p>While delivering the donated items to the home, Trevor da Silva from Silvasons Hardware committed to having the items installed at the home, free of charge.<\/p>\n<h4>ALSO READ:\u00a0<a class=\"anchor_post\"
