Several years ago, the former nurse and mother of two teenage sons returned to work at her local community hospital, but this time as a receptionist. “The trouble is that I was completely rubbish at the job,” says Dolores with a smile. Phones went unanswered, and she never did master the computer, but that was because she spent time away from her desk talking with and comforting the parents of sick children and the children themselves. “A child would ask for a simple thing, such as 衡水金卷先享题周测卷 英语·新高考 3 an ice cream, but because it was not meal time, they could not have it. I also knew families could benefit from meeting each other but, because of privacy, I could not pass on anyone’s details.” Dolores had never imagined starting a charity, but when she spoke to one of the doctors about these problems, he offered to help. They spent hours sitting around her kitchen table filling in charity forms. “It was really hard work, but I’ve never regretted it,” she says. 衡水金卷先享题周测卷 英语·新高考 Since the project began, the atmosphere of the children’s unit has changed beyond recognition. Children asked for a place to play outdoors, so Dolores developed an area in the hospital grounds and changed it into a beautiful garden and play space. There is now a common room for teenagers, equipped with fashionable furniture and a fridge full of food and fresh juices. Dolores also organizes family group meetings so parents can give each other support. The whole community has worked to make the dream come true. To date, Dolores, the “hopeless” receptionist, has raised millions of dollars. Getting local schools to raise money has been surprisingly easy. The community has also pulled together by organizing street parties, car washes, picnics and concerts. Joan
