Massive Donation Drive, Hearts For Healthcare Heroes, Benefiting Children’s Mercy Hospital, Kicks Off

Kansas City, MO, Friday, January 6, 2023 -- Jana Jeffery, team leader, Royal Fox Network announces a massive donation drive, Hearts for Healthcare Heroes, benefiting Children’s Mercy Hospital in downtown Kansas City, MO. Launched in 2022, this drive provides much needed self-care items, snacks and drinks for healthcare workers to show our appreciation and support for the work they do for our community. Doctors, nurses and support staff across the nation are struggling to cope with the long hours and the emotional toll from waves of RSV, COVID patients, and our typical winter-time flu. This year our young folks were hit especially hard with RSV while shortages of critical care staff continue to plague local and national hospitals and facilities. DID YOU KNOW?Children’s Mercy Kansas City staff makes up around 2% of Kansas City’s population. How’d we find out? The hospital staffs over 8,000 employees who provide lifesaving care to the children of the Kansas City metro-area, which had a population of 508,394 (2021). It’s clear through the numbers just how valuable these members are to our community. Opened in 1903 with just 5 beds, the hospital has grown substantially to accommodate 386 beds today. According to AHD.com, Children’s Mercy KC discharged a total of 11,779 patients in just 2021. To show our appreciation, Royal Fox Network is partnering with local businesses to benefit Children’s Mercy Hospital’s Emergency, PICU, and Respiratory Therapy Departments with this drive. We’re inviting the community to participate by shopping the curated Amazon Wishlist at http://bit.ly/CMH2023. We will be delivering donated items to the Emergency and PICU departments at Children’s Mercy on February 14th.

Extreme Temperatures Can Wreak Havoc On Your Home, Here's What You Need To Know

Extreme hot and cold temperatures can have a variety of effects on a home, both externally and internally. It's important to know what to watch for. During extreme cold temperatures, a home may experience issues such as: Frozen pipes: When water in pipes freezes, it expands and can cause the pipes to burst, leading to costly water damage. Ice dams: When snow on the roof melts and then refreezes at the edge of the roof, it can create ice dams that prevent water from draining properly. This can cause water to back up and leak into the home. Heating problems: Cold temperatures can put extra strain on a home's heating system, which may result in problems such as a furnace breaking down or a pilot light going out. During extreme hot temperatures, a home may experience issues such as: Warping: Extreme heat can cause wood and other materials to expand, leading to warping and other structural damage. Cracking: Dry, hot conditions can cause paint and plaster to crack, and may also lead to cracks in foundations and other structural components. Pest problems: Hot temperatures can attract pests such as ants, termites, and cockroaches, which can cause damage to a home. To protect a home from the effects of extreme temperatures, it's important to ensure that the home is properly insulated, maintain the heating and cooling systems, and make any necessary repairs as soon as possible. Additionally, it's a good idea to take steps to reduce the amount of heat or cold that enters the home, such as using window coverings or sealing gaps around windows and doors.
