ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Cal’s Angels Comfort Kits are bags filled with items to make a family’s hospital stay more comfortable. The Comfort Kits are available to any oncology family, in-patient or out-patient.
WHY WE DO IT
When a family is in need of some comfort or has an unexpected overnight stay at the hospital, the Comfort Kit bags are on hand for the hospital staff to give families. Each bag is filled with some essential items that make a families hospital stay more comfortable. The program idea was originated from a Mom of one of our wish kids, Traci McDowell and is managed by her friends who volunteer their time. Cal’s Angels partnered with Sammons Financial Group to sponsor Cal’s Comfort Kits.

What Our Families Say
“We received our bag this week when Kevin was inpatient. It was amazing! Kevin confiscated the neck pillow, blanket and slipper socks. Thank you so very much!!!”
“We wanted to thank you for the Cal’s Angel Comfort Kit. Thomas loves the pillow and thermos! The gift cards are a treat. He had Dunkin Donuts breakfast on his way to chemo last Monday. Tomorrow he wants to buy a dozen donuts to share with the nurses and child life specialists at the clinic. Thank you so much.”
