WBC is excited to partner with Ruck for Rugrats, an organization made up of a group of combat veterans who wanted to do something for children that are set apart during the holidays due to their illnesses. Much like veterans who often grapple with the isolation of their combat experiences, these youngsters at Children’s of Mississippi Hospital can feel separated from the joys of the holiday season. Ruck for Rugrats wants the young patients to know that they are cherished and never forgotten. To participate, please drop off an UNWRAPPED playful, creative or educational toy (age range is newborn – 13 years old, NO money, NO toy weapons/firearms) at the WBC Hub by December 10. Click HERE for more information or to participate in the actual event in Jackson.
