Thank you to Dane and Jessica Wilcox for always being faithful supporters of Emma's Hugs. They were looking for a Turkey Trot for their family to participate in on Thanksgiving morning. When they couldn't find one locally, organized one themselves! They chose to give all proceeds from the run to Emma's Hugs and we couldn't be more thankful. The first annual event was a huge success with many local people participating - active runners, walkers, moms, dads, grandparents, and children. People pulling wagons, pushing strollers, and walking dogs. We can't wait to participate in this event again next year!

Today was our favorite day of the month - parking chip delivery day! Emma's Hugs volunteers delivered 479 days of parking to patients in the Texas Medical Center today. A huge thank you to everyone who donates to Emma's Hugs. We couldn't make these deliveries without your help. {Hugs}
This is Annie and her family. She gave Emma's Hugs her first communion money and her mom wrote a check to match her donation for a total of $80. Thanks for being so generous, Annie!
Emma's Hugs would like to say a huge thank you to the American College of Health Executives Southeast Texas chapter for selecting us to benefit from their 16th annual charity golf tournament. At their quarterly meeting on November 5, 2016, we were presented with a check for $6,000 - that will enable us to hug even more people dealing with long-term hospitalizations. Thank you, ACHE!
