18 APR 2023 · With Barbara in this episode are two ladies from two different non profits doing different things. One recently participated in a competition called "Fast Pitch" which we will hear all about, the other provides a wonderful service to children in need that helps them feel secure! About ~ Patti Lopez Dr. Patti Lopez, Director Hi my name is Patti Lopez and I have had the wonderful opportunity to serve the children and community of Tucson as an educator for many years. I have transitioned into a new role of serving children as I currently work as the Executive Director for Angel Heart Pajama Project. Angel Heart is a nonprofit organization with a Mission of providing new pajamas, books, and cuddle pillows to children in need. The children we serve are living in distressed situations. They are in shelters, foster care or adoption processes, abused, neglected, possibly abandoned or seriously ill. Many children arrive at a new facility with only the clothing that they are wearing. The new pajamas give them a sense of being gifted something special, warm, and cozy. In a time of distress they can get lost in a story or book and escape, if only temporarily from a difficult situation. The cuddle pillow provides them with something small and soft to hold tight and give them a sense of security when no one else may be holding or cuddling them. My passion and hope is that all children who receive the Angel Heart gift will feel, loved and cared for. Please join me on this journey of supporting children in need.
