Supervisor Knabe Honors Kiwanis Club Volunteers
Supervisor
Don Knabe presented scrolls of recognition to Maxine Burkhammer,
Joann Ferrin and Elaine Liston of the Lomita-Harbor City Kiwanis
Club for making over 100 handmade dolls for young patients at
Harbor-UCLA Medical Center.
Burkhammer, Ferrin and Liston spent over 150 hours hand making over
100 dolls to give away to children undergoing cancer treatment,
surgery and other medical care at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. The
dolls are 12 inches long and come dressed in hospital caps and
gowns. The women have plans to make an additional 400 dolls by the
end of this year.
“What these three women have done is absolutely remarkable.” said
Supervisor Knabe. “Maxine, Joann, and Elaine have brought comfort
and understanding to children and families that are going through
very difficult times, and we are grateful for their passionate and
dedicated spirit.”
