UNF Interns Spring 2024

This semester, our team welcomed three interns from the University of North Florida (UNF): Emilia, Inthury, and Jennan. Throughout their internship, they contributed a unique blend of skills and passion, brightening the days and enhancing the healing process of many patients and families.

Our Artists in the Community

Our team of Artists-in-Residence showcase their creativity and skills not only within the hospital, but also as professional artists in the community. They participate in various public events, workshops, and exhibitions, sharing their talents and passion for art with a wider audience.

"My daughter, Nora, was hospitalized last week and it was a very scary time for us all. However, she very much enjoyed the art sessions that AWAHIH provided. Each morning, she was excited to go to the playroom to see what was in store for the day. I want everyone to know how happy these art activities made Nora and our family. AWAHIH is important to so many families. Thank you!"

-Nicole, mother of Nora, Wolfson Children's Hospital patient

Nora's experience was made possible thanks to your generous support. It is through contributions from individuals like you that we can provide a healing art experience to those who need it the most. Become a part of our story today!
