  • SGH Medical Staff "Backpacks for Kids"
  • It's time for the 2011 Medical Staff Community Service Project sponsored by the Happiness Committee! This is your chance to make a difference by helping some special kids right here in La Mesa!

    The last day of school will quickly be followed by the first day of the 2011-2012 school year but some kids can't buy backpacks and school supplies. They need your help!

    Here's how to help:

    Either:

    • Decide how many kids you'd like to help and pledge $50 for each - we'll do the shopping! (Email lesley.bradley@sharp.com and then make your check payable to SGH Medical Staff and send it to Medical Staff Services at SGH.)
    Or...
    • Decide how many kids you want to help and head for the store! Take your kids! Shop! Buy a backpack and fill it with supplies.
    • Bring the backpack(s) to the main MD Lounge anytime before June 30. The backpacks will be moved to a secure location on a daily basis.

    Questions? Need a school supplies shopping list?
    Call Lesley Bradley at 619-740-4145 or email lesley.bradley@sharp.com.

  • A Message from William Friedel MD, Chair SGH Medical Staff Happines Committee
  • The Happiness Committee has been asked to announce Comedy Night benefiting the Challenge Center. The Challenge Center works with physically disabled patients, providing free rehabilitative care to those with severe limitations, who are unable to afford this level of treatment. The rehabilitation department of Grossmont Hospital has worked with them for many years. This year the Challenge Center is excited to have master impressionist Rich Little perform. Several members of the Happiness Committee plan to attend this event and would love to have other members of the staff join them. The event will be held on Friday, September 9, at the Manchester Grand Hyatt. Tickets are $175 each. Please contact Lesley Bradley (740-4145 or lesley.bradley@sharp.com) or Bill Friedel if you're interested in supporting this worthy cause.
