Companies have long been strong supporters of health issues, from breast cancer to AIDS, providing much-needed support and awareness to these important causes. Yet, recently we’ve seen more organizations answer the call of duty when urgent health outbreaks have occurred. In the midst of the Ebola health crisis, nearly 90 major American companies provided more than $50 million in cash and in-kind contributions to support relief and recovery efforts, according to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation. Now, as the Zika virus outbreak continues to gain momentum, one company is stepping up to provide not only monetary donations, but business assets to fight the spread of this destructive virus.
Healthcare facilities are a highly regulated industry and many hospitals and ambulatory care settings work hard to reach and maintain appropriate accreditation goals.

I will never forget how shocked I felt when, having volunteered in my children's school to run art activity groups, several eight year olds declared loudly 'I'm no good at art, Miss!'. I thought: 'Who told you that? You are too young to feel like this!'. The sad thing was that they were all very keen to join in, attracted by the display of bright collage materials, paints and crayons, but the feeling of 'being no good at art' definitely held them back, making them hesitate. Not long ago, they would have all crowded around the table, confident in their ability to make messy and exuberant artworks full of stories and meaning: the fact that these would end up looking soggy and messy did not lessen their enthusiasm and enjoyment.
