Danielle Cuoco '18 Hosts "Rockin' 4 Nemours" Event at AI DuPont Hospital for Children

On Saturday, October 28th, Danielle Cuoco '18 returned to Nemours/AI duPont Hospital for Children to host her "Rockin' 4 Nemours" live music event. Originated in 2015 by Danielle, the music evening creates an opportunity for the children to enjoy live music performed by young artists in a safe, comfortable and relaxing setting – an experience that they might otherwise not be able to enjoy given their health circumstances. Danielle works with the hospital's Department of Child Life, Creative Arts and School Programs ("Child Life Program") to host the Rockin' 4 Nemours concert for the patients and their families. The Child Life Program creates and supports unique opportunities such as this to help make the hospital a positive experience for their young patients.

Danielle was joined by Archmere's Katherine Alberta '19 and Tower Hill's Reece Ratliff, both of whom generously volunteered their time to come and perform. It was heart-warming to see all of the kids who attended, including those who watched from the floors above because they were unable to leave their floors. Sponsors provided snacks and refreshments for patients and their families. Generous event sponsors included Gable Music Ventures, Electro Sound Systems, BJ's Wholesale and The Kenny Family Foundation.
