Why is Pepsi Refresh So Important?

Everyone is spreading awareness about the Pepsi Refresh grant that Dance Marathon is trying to win in order to redo the Pediatric Waiting Area at Shands Children’s Hospital, but has anyone stopped to think about what this really means?

As a child, hearing that a loved one is sick or undergoing surgery is a worry that no child should have to be burdened with. In that time of stress and concern, it would be a wonderful thing for the kids to be given the opportunity to be distracted with not only fun toys, but also educational materials. It can make a horrible experience for a child into one that allows a little bit of a diversion to hopefully brighten a child’s day!

Please continue to vote for Pepsi Refresh through November 23!
