Treats for caregivers 2024

This year’s “Treats for Caregivers,” organized by the Irene Dunne Guild, took place on September 12th and was a great success!

Nearly 1,000 ice cream treats along with hundreds of gift cards and prizes were given away during last Thursday’s annual ‘Treats for Caregivers’ event! Hosted by the Irene Dunne Guild and Saint John's Health Center Foundation, Treats for Caregivers is organized as a way to have fun and show appreciation for the hard work done by the wonderful staff across the Health Center. Caregivers got to choose between a variety of ice cream flavors from the King Kone ice cream trucks while listening to malt shop oldies and answering trivia questions or hula-hooping for prizes! There were 689 ice creams given out during the day and over 200 given out during the night shift in the cafe. Thank you to all who attended and to the Irene Dunne Guild and Foundation organizers who hosted. Another big shout-out to the local business vendors who donated prizes for the occasion including Shake Shack, Bludso’s BBQ, Dunkin’ Donuts, Randy’s Donuts, Santa Monica Seafood, Mendocino Farms, Uppers Café Bake Shop, Café Luxxe, El Cholo, Cookie Good & Petitgrain Boulangerie.

A big thank you to event chair Diane Morgan for organizing, to Morgan Culbertson for the fun Trivia, and to the amazing IDG volunteers who helped make the event possible. We also extend our gratitude to all our sponsors and give a BIG Thank you to Shake Shack for its large generous donation!
