In addition to providing Easter bins, baskets or bags to the families we support, our team in Louisiana was able to provide to three different children's hospitals, and Ronald McDonald House in New Orleans. In North Carolina, the team put together a whopping 175 baskets and after delivering to the Ragan's HOPE families, provided Easter baskets to EVERY child at Levine Children's Hospital and Ronald McDonald House in Charlotte.
