community ::: annual holiday project

---

The holiday season is an exciting time of year at Mayfield, bringing out the best in everyone. Year after year, physicians and associates come together to bring holiday cheer to those less fortunate in our community. Since 2001, we have collected over 900 gifts and $12,000 to support our holiday activities.

Building on past successes, our 2011 Holiday Project was bigger than ever. We extended our reach to provide a greater impact and to share the joy of the season with those in need—young, old, sick and hungry—in our community. This was our 13th year to help FACE, third year to support the school, and first year to extend our reach to include the children’s homes and nursing home.

Here’s a snapshot of what we accomplished in 2011:

• We adopted 60 children for our gift-giving project: 20 children from the Children’s Home of Cincinnati, 10 children served by FACE (For AIDS Children Everywhere), and 30 students at South Avondale Elementary School.
  
  
• We provided financial support to send 35 boys from the Children’s Home of Northern Kentucky to the Festival of Lights at the Cincinnati Zoo for an evening of holiday fun and festivities.
  
  
• We shared the gift of our time with residents of Meadowbrook Nursing Home when we join them for holiday treats, songs of the season and conversation.
  
  
• We provided food and essentials to help re-stock the shelves at FACE.

We are proud of our associates and physicians and their commitment to help Mayfield serve the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky community in every way possible.
