400 comfort kits, packed by volunteers, are on their way to the people who care for children with rare diseases

Caregivers are the invisible workforce of every sick child's life — and on the International Day of Care and Support, Microsoft employee volunteers in Seattle sat down to do something small and concrete for them: assembling 400 comfort kits with guided emotional-support tools and self-care items, bound for Seattle Children's hospital. Sister kits are heading to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi and to children's services at Wrexham Maelor Hospital in Wales, through the nonprofit Raregivers' hospital programme. 'Employee volunteerism turns our shared commitment to community into something personal and tangible,' said Microsoft's Nathalie D'Hers.
