The Oriental Band of the Little Pee Dee Shrine Club recently sent $2,500 to the Shriners Hospital for Children in Greenville.
According to a letter from the Shiners Hospital, the donation will support their mission of providing the highest quality care to children.
The letter says that their generous support ensures that the best doctors, clinicians, and researchers have access to the resources that provide transformative care –care that helps turn patients back into kids.
Tracy McReynolds, Director of Development, said, “Wow!! Thank you to all the members of the Omar Oriental Band who made this wonderful gift possible. We are truly blessed by their service, devotion, and love of the children.”
Director Mike Thomas said that he and the Oriental Band would like to thank those who made this donation possible. “We don’t just talk the talk, we walk the walk for crippled children,” said Thomas. “The next time you see a Shriner think of a child who needs your financial contributions.
The Oriental Band also made an additional $600 contribution to the Children’s Hospital in memory of Eddie Hayes. They wish to thank everyone who donated to that memorial fund.
