The heart of a budding activist
Information and photos provided by Sofia’s mom
Yesterday, current cancer fighting patient Sofia had a fun reason to visit Levine Children’s Hospital. As Sophia’s mom put it… “Today, we were able to celebrate with our own personal super hero, Dr. Joel Kaplan (Sofia’s head oncologist), as he received a grant from Hyundai Hope on Wheels. Bonus: the kids got to put their handprints on his white lab coat and on a brand new car!”
Dr. Kaplan and Levine Children’s Hospital was awarded a $50,000 Impact Grant from Hyundai Hope on Wheels. This award was presented for his proven track record in providing excellent patient care to families affected by pediatric cancer and to support his continued efforts. We couldn’t be more thrilled with this news, Dr. Kaplan not only is Sofia’s personal super hero… he was Isabella’s as well.
