Oct. 26, 2008: 7Everyday Hero Spreads Smiles Through Arts And Crafts

Frances Leach Has Helped Collect Supplies For Six Years

POSTED: 12:37 pm MDT October 27, 2008

Frances Leach works full-time, but she still manages to find time to collect arts and crafts supplies for patients at Children’s Hospital in Aurora.

For six years, Leach has gotten co-workers and local companies to donate supplies and money. This year, she filled 102 boxes, her biggest haul yet.

The supplies fill "art carts" throughout the Children’s Hospital Network, from Broomfield to Parker. They allow children to make art and crafts during their hospital stay.

"Without her ability to coordinate all these donations of art supplies, I honestly don't know what we would have done without that," said Mary Navin from Children’s Hospital.
