Each year, Under Our Wings hosts a three-part Valentine's event. The event benefits the Houston Area Women's Center, Texas Children's Hospital, Children's Hospital Colorado, and the local hungry community of Houston. With support from sponsors, co-sponsors, and volunteers, we have donated over 6700 Avian Kingdom books to children through this event over the past four years.
"[Avian Kingdom] stories and activities, along with the mascot, provide normalization and a welcome distraction from the hospital setting...[Under Our Wings's] visit especially with celebrity readers encourages children to get out of their rooms and forget that they are in the hospital. Their families also enjoy having these activities as a distraction." -Catherine Zdunkewicz, Texas Children's Hospital-Library Coordinator
