Off the road and room-to-room, Chiang Mai ToyRide committee members and guests gave elephants, bears and bunnies to ailing children and their families at Maharaj Hospital on 30 April. After meeting with hospital directors who received nurse bears, we rolled two carts brimming with animals into the lobby and split into four small “teams” which personally presented stuffed buddies to children in several wards: cancer, kidney/chronic disease, heart disease, liver disease and ICU. Helpful and gracious, the hospital staff and nurses assisted cheerfully with our charitable task.
