Happy 100th Birthday to Riley Children's Health! 🎂🎈 100 years ago today, Riley Hospital for Children opened its doors to its first patients. Ever since that day, Riley has been a leader in pediatric care and a symbol of hope for all families whose lives have been impacted by medical afflictions. Friends of Riley is passionate about the hospital, its patients, and the focus of our organization’s meaning, the Certified Child Life Specialist team. Although the role of a CCLS was not around yet when the hospital first opened, the continued advancements of patient care and the beginnings of the Child Life role have improved countless lives and continue to create meaningful impact for all Riley kids. ❤️ Let’s celebrate 100 years of hope and care! 🌟 #100YearsofRiley #FriendsofRiley #RileyHospital #ftk

Giving back to the community, Indiana style 🌽 On Sunday members from our Board of Directors collaborated with the Indiana State Fair to volunteer at the Little Hands on the Farm experience for children. We had so much fun interacting with the kids to help them learn about farming, animal care, and where our food comes from! 🚜 Thank you to the Indiana State Fair for this opportunity and for your support of F.O.R. and our mission to give back to the Child Life team at Riley Hospital for Children!
