Super-Monkeys 4 Max
February 18 is Monkeys4Max Day! It’s Max Dobbins’ 4th birthday and once again, Max’s family is celebrating through a commission of OSM Delegates to be sent to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
Max was born with a rare heart condition and the amazing staff at the C.H.O.P. Cardiac Center saved his life shortly after his birth. Each year on his birthday, Max and his family visit the Cardiac Centre and distribute sock monkeys to children receiving care, helping to spread comfort and some smiles to families in uncertain times. This year Max chose a ‘Super Hero’ theme and Operatives in Vancouver, BC had a barrel of fun crafting up mini-Super Hero outfits for many many monkeys.
Max’s donation this year will support Canadian Clown Alice Nelson and her upcoming expedition with Clowns Without Borders South Africa.
Happy Birthday, Max! Thanks for sharing your special day and birthday smiles with children in your own community and around the world. May the joy you bring to others visit you tenfold in the year and years to come.
