PORT CHARLOTTE — One region resident has worked to create more than 200 blankets for patients at a local hospital.
According to a news release from HCA Florida Fawcett Hospital, it credited volunteer Jenny Conley for her efforts.
A volunteer for 14 years, she has created and then distributed her hand-crocheted blankets during many of those years during most of those holidays, the news release stated.
“Jenny is a compassionate, wonderful volunteer and we are lucky to have her in our Fawcett family,” Fawcett Hospital volunteer manager stated in the news release. “Patients light up when receiving a blanket and we appreciate her devotion and her gift of time.”
Volunteers are always needed for the facility.
