Each care package contains high quality, long-lasting amenities curated with the intent to improve the comfortability of hospital care wherever possible. Each care package has a retail value of $400, and throughout its operation, The First Night Project has ensured that not a single dollar has been spent without intention, care, and reliability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f91aaa9f805033ce28294b6/a20eb6c1-f300-4b07-8903-c71632b580c2/Screen+Shot+2023-06-11+at+3.53.51+PM.png The First Night Project - Special-Curated Amenities Each care package is composed of hand-picked amenities built on the experiences of Founder Harry McGovern and his own experience with Stage IV Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Harry sought to emphasize improved bedding, toiletries, and dining options for the next generation of teenage cancer patients. As such, every care package created by The First Night Project contains a memory foam pillow, woven throw blanket, lavender-scented body wash, Patagonia backpack, and $100 in gift-cards to local restaurants for each hospital location. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f91aaa9f805033ce28294b6/f5b865d1-0b6a-4759-9188-7bd44054fdcd/Screen+Shot+2023-06-11+at+4.28.24+PM.png The First Night Project - Impact-Focused Delivery To ensure that quality-of-care is improved as early as possible, care packages are delivered within the first few day of in-patient admission.
