UnitedHealthcare employees assembled and delivered 150 Grins to Go bags last week to patients at Children’s Hospital of Orange County and Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital Long Beach.
The Grins to Go bags contained the fourth book of the award-winning Oliver & Hope series Good Deeds Day, toys, games and other fun activities for children ages four to 12.  The community can purchase the books and bags on Amazon.com. Every purchase funds grants offered by UnitedHealthcare Children’s Foundation to help children gain access to medical-related services.
