Debut Video for the Care Givers- (notes on the video page) ...Background below for context and the rest is a list of resources during Covid 19.
"Pauraig and the Nurses rehearsed until they were ready to share this. It gives us an opportunity to play you a famous song for lost heroes about human dedication. It also allows us to share new kinds of two way or multi-way literacy, communication, and ways to touch hearts when the workers, the patients, the communities, and the businesses and families need solace the most. Enjoy these songs and the dancers meant for everyone who needs to take heart. The Resources below will recognize places you can give, volunteer, or participate or just listen and pass this along."
