A big thank you to Owen, along with his parents Kelsey and Logan, for their incredible generosity in donating 107 LEGO sets to The Foundation!

With help from Amanda Rosselli from Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, some of these LEGO sets were shared with kids on that unit, and the rest were added to our Kids Closet to brighten hospital stays for future patients.

Because of thoughtful gestures like this, our youngest patients can find comfort, creativity, and a little extra joy during their time at CVPH! 💚

Travel Funds: Helping Patients Get the Care They Need

Each of our travel funds was created with a unique story and purpose — all with the same goal: helping patients and families in our region access specialized medical care when travel is required.

💚 April LaValley Fund
Supports patients with cystic fibrosis who must travel for care. April, lovingly known as an “angel” in the North Country, wished to help others facing the same illness.

💚 CVPH Travel Fund
Established in 2001 by The Foundation Board of Directors, this fund assists adults who need out-of-area specialized medical care.

💚 Melissa Lahtinen Penfield Fund
Created by WIRY and the Lahtinen and Penfield families, this fund helps organ transplant recipients and donors — honoring Melissa’s legacy of compassion and strength.

💚 Roger Senecal Fund
Supports income-eligible families with ill children who must travel for treatment. The community’s outpouring of support for Roger as a young boy in the 1980s continues to make a difference today.

These funds represent the heart of our community — neighbors helping neighbors during life’s most challenging moments.
