The Heart Behind the Packs
Our journey began with a simple question: how can we make the cardiac unit feel more like home? It started with a personal experience that taught us the power of small gestures. We realized that a fanny pack isn't just a bag—it's a symbol of independence, a tool for comfort, and a reminder that even in the most challenging times, we have the strength to carry on. That's why we started Packs 4 Peds, dedicated to bringing a touch of our own story to the children and families at Nemours Children's Hospital.
