HCMH Auxiliary Care Bags
The HCMH Auxiliary Care Bags project provides thoughtfully assembled care packages for individuals undergoing treatment for serious and life-threatening illnesses—such as cancer and other critical conditions.
Each bag is filled with comfort items to lift spirits and ease the treatment journey.
