For the third year in a row, Brinkley Morgan attorneys and staff members rallied together to collect a large assortment of new and gently used Halloween costumes to donate to the pediatric patients at Children's Diagnostic & Treatment Center (CDTC).
The CDTC is a non-profit organization that serves infants, children and youth with chronic illnesses, disabilities and developmental delays. As a facility of Broward Health, the center's mission is to promote the optimal health and well-being of children with special healthcare needs by providing comprehensive prevention, intervention and treatment services within a medical home environment.
Superheroes, witches, and princesses were among just a few of the many Halloween costumes gathered for the drive, which commenced at the beginning of October. Several of the firm's employees delivered racks of costumes in a variety of children’s sizes to the center on Tues., Oct. 18, just in time for physicians and case managers to distribute the donated costumes to pediatric patients in need of a smile.
