Stars help make inaugural We Care for Kids Day a success
As a thank you to the community for its support, Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital held a street party called We Care for Kids Day on May 1. The event featured free fun and games for children and their families, a children’s show stage and a large music stage set up outside the hospital. An estimated 3,000 people attended.
