Ace Hardware Helpful Heroes
Ace Hardware Helpful Heroes at Lurie Children’s are nursing and child life team members who embody a helpful spirit through their work with patients, families, and colleagues inside Lurie Children’s, as well as in their local community.
Each year, a small group of Helpful Heroes will be selected by a panel of nursing and Family Services staff, as well as Ace Hardware and Lurie Children’s Foundation team members, and honored by Ace Hardware at a special event and will be spotlighted by Lurie Children’s through internal and external communications. Staff selected as Helpful Heroes will receive special gifts from Ace Hardware, such as scrubs, water bottles, and badge holders. During their year as a Helpful Hero, honorees may be invited to represent Lurie Children’s at Ace Hardware events, such as golf outings or fundraising events.
