CDW Friend – A Heartwarming Story

As told by Rob Clow Jr. to Pat Kohl, Director Northwest Commercial | CDW

I wanted to share how the generosity of CDW and its employees personally affects my family. Here is a note and picture from my sister.

“Thank you to everyone who donates CDW Build a Bears. You made my little girl’s day. My daughter, Elizabeth, has Cystic Fybrosis. In December, we were at Lurie Children’s, a Children’s Miracle Network Hospital, for one of her many all-day appointments full of poking and prodding. As usual, on our way she was exhausted and upset. As we came off the elevator, a woman stopped us to ask if we would like a CDW Lion. It turned her whole day around! I don’t know if you realize the meaning behind such a kind act. She has to go to Lurie for appointments nearly every 6 weeks. She is becoming more aware of what is happening – Making her visits to Lurie a positive experience is so important. That day, you did that for her. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness that meant the world to us.”
