The money raised during is used to provide much-needed items to the children who attend the Wilson Community Center and their families.

Volunteers of the credit union wrap these presents and deliver them as Santa’s helpers for the children to open during their holiday celebration on the last day of school before winter break. In addition to providing holiday gifts, the program has allowed Arizona Federal to help supply uniforms to children attending the school, and provided food bags that the children and their families can take home over extended school breaks. “More than 25 percent of the children attending this school are homeless, and many more rely on the school’s free lunch program for their only meal of the day,” said Julie Rivas, director of risk mitigation and project chair for the holiday raffle. “Through this program, we can help give these kids a chance to just be a kid, and to help their parents stress less about where their family’s food will come from over winter and summer break,” Rivas added. “We’re thankful we can be involved – and that our members have been generous enough to make this program a success year after year.” Arizona Federal’s annual holiday raffle typically takes place from the middle of November through the beginning of December.

Christmas Miracle: Couple Welcomes Quintuplets

Theo nguồn tin Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center trên trang mạng prnewswire.com

First Ever Born in 121 Year History of Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix PHOENIX, Dec. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Miracles are usually one in a million. Not this Christmas season at Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix AZ, where within 17 minutes, five tiny miracles appeared. Earlier this month, Margaret and Michael Baudinet welcomed their five firstborns. The tiny miracles became the first set of quintuplets born at St. Joseph’s in the hospital’s 121-year history. The Baudinets’ dreams of being parents seemed impossible. But, on Dec. 4, Margaret gave birth to Ava, Clara, Camille, Luke and Isabelle Baudinet. “This is an incredible time for the Baudinet family and for the hospital,” said Patty White, president and CEO of St. Joseph’s “They are now a part of the rich history here at St. Joseph’s.” After two miscarriages, the Baudinets decided to try fertility treatments. Upon learning the treatment was successful, the couple recalls feeling a mixture of shock and joy alongside a healthy dose of fear and anxiety. “Going to our first ultrasound, I was worried it would result in yet another miscarriage,'” said Margaret, 31, who manages College Solutions, a private college counseling firm in Richmond, Virginia. “Then, I remember the nurse started to giggle as she performed the sonogram. She told us she saw at least four heart beats. We immediately went into shock which was only furthered when we later learned that I was actually carrying five babies.” While complications can happen with any pregnancy, Margaret’s pregnancy would pose higher risks for prematurity, low birth weight, sight and hearing deficiencies, underdeveloped lungs and cerebral palsy, among other risks. Quintuplets are rare, occurring only once in several million pregnancies. “I was prepared for two or three children, and always thought it would be fun to have twins. I wasn’t at all prepared for five children all at once. Still, after all we’ve been through, it wasn’t until about 24-weeks gestation that we actually started to feel excited,” said Michael, 34, a lawyer at McGuireWoods LLP in Richmond. After a lot of research, Margaret ant Michael spoke with renowned perinatologist John Elliott, MD, in Phoenix. Following a phone consultation, they decided to move temporarily from their Virginia home, near Richmond, to Phoenix to work with Dr. Elliott. The plan included delivering the babies at St. Joseph’s Hospital. “Like many patients who call, they were scared and looking for answers,” said Dr. Elliott, who specializes in high-risk pregnancies and has delivered more sets of quintuplets than any doctor in the world. “Our goal is to give them a program; a blueprint to help them feel more in control and more optimistic for success.” The Baudinet quintuplets were born at 32-weeks via cesarean section. Delivering the five babies took the 24-person team at St. Joseph’s just 17 minutes. Despite their early arrival, the five babies had better than anticipated weights ranging from three to four pounds. All are doing well and will spend their first Christmas continuing to grow in St. Joseph’s NyICU, before heading to Virginia in January. The Baudinets have chronicled their pregnancy on their blog, A Bundle of Baudinets, which has links to a Go Fund Me campaign and other baby registries. “We are very grateful to our friends and family for all their love and prayers and to McGuireWoods for all the support it has provided us,” Michael said. About Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center Located in the heart of Phoenix, AZ, St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center is a 586-bed, not-for-profit hospital that provides a wide range of health, social and support services with special advocacy for the poor and underserved.

Housing Department Receives Grant to Help Youth Living in Public Housing Afford College

Theo nguồn tin trên trang của phoenix.gov

Dec. 12, 2016 The city of Phoenix Housing Department has been selected as one of nine housing authorities to receive a $452-thousand grant to help low-income youth and their families complete the U.S. Department of Education’s Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). “The future of Phoenix depends on the success of these kids,” said Mayor Greg Stanton. “This investment gives students in public housing direct, personal help to put them on a higher education track. We know that when students fill out FAFSA they’re more likely to go to college and will earn hundreds of thousands more dollars over their lifetimes than those who don’t.” The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will award the grant funding for the city to hire education navigators that will help guide public housing youth ages 15-20 and their families through the financial aid application process so that they can attend college or other post-secondary educational institution. “The hiring of education navigators to help prospective students through the financial aid application process will put them on the path to achieving the dream of a college degree and open the doors to better career opportunities,” said Councilwoman Laura Pastor, chair of the Parks, Arts, Education, and Equality Subcommittee. “This is truly exciting news for families taking part in public housing programs and services within our community.” The education navigators also will assist families and youth with financial literacy and college readiness, post-secondary program applications and post-acceptance assistance. The Department of Education estimates that those who earn a bachelor’s degree earn two-thirds more than those with only a high school diploma and are far less likely to face unemployment. This grant is part of the Resident Opportunities and Self Sufficiency (ROSS) for Education Program – one of several HUD initiatives to increase access to federal financial aid for HUD-assisted families and students. For more information about ROSS, visit hud.gov. For information about the services and programs offered by the Phoenix Housing Department, call 602-262-6794 or visit phoenix.gov/housing.
