Sharkey's Cuts for Kids Visit #15 to Janeway Children's Hospital

On Thursday July 18th, we had our 15th visit to the Janeway Children's Hospital to provide complimentary haircuts, minicures and tattoos for the great kids that are at the Janeway for an extended period of time and are unable to come to us. 

It has been a while since we have been to the hospital as there was a prolonged visitor restriction, but we are very happy to be back.

We only had a a few kids this month, one of which was a great friend of ours, Danika, whom we have known since we first started coming to the Janeway. This week she told us that her ipod that she uses every day had been broken, and being in the hospital so often, she really relies on it. After hearing her tell us about it, Sharkey's teamed up with Bell Aliant the the Future Shop to provide Danika with a brand new 64GB Ipad Mini.This will not only replace Danika's broken ipod for entertainment, but will also allow her to access the Internet while in the hospital. She was extremely excited and could not wait to call her mom, dad and poppy.

Here are a couple pics from this week:
