Practice with Purpose
For 2011, the staff at Parivartan Mississauga will be donating all charity class donations to the SickKids Foundation.
While pregnant with Damien, Michelle discovered through ultrasounds that Damien was developing kidney abnormalities. Once born, Damien experienced many
challenges and was put into Intensive Care the instant he was born. At less than 2 weeks old, Damien was going to SickKids Hospital, where Michelle
was able to see what a fantastic hospital this was to treat all kinds of unfortunate illnesses many children had experienced. The staff at SickKids helped
Damien and put so much attention into his kidney problem, that by 2 months old, the abnormality was no longer an issue. This is when Michelle decided that all
through the rest of her life, she would promote the charity of the SickKids Foundation.
Through each charity donation through the charity classes, SickKids Hospital is able to direct funds to go towards infrastructure and supporting the essential work of physicians, researchers and scientists.
With your help, they can:
- Care for more than 100,000 patients every year
- Perform open-heart surgeries on babies small enough to fit in the palm of your hand
- Correct terrible deformities, heal cancers and treat massive burns
- Invent treatments that 20 years ago people would have dismissed as science fiction
- Continue to have a profound impact on the lives of children through novel, innovative treatment plans
- Make discoveries that mean less pain for children, a higher survival rate and less time in hospital
- Purchase state-of-the-art equipment and update facilities, which enable them to attract the best doctors, researchers and nurses
Parivartan Mississauga charity classes are asking for donations of a minimum of $5.
Thank you for helping us support such a great hospital!
** Minimum $5 donation is required to participate in our Charity Classes and must be paid before the class begins. 100% of the proceeds goes to SickKids Hospital. This class always gets full quickly, so please arrive early to get a spot in the Infrared Hot Yoga Room. The front door will be locked if the class is at full capacity. We thank you for your co-operation!**
