The hospital鈥檚 ER staff adopted the school three years ago when workers learned that many of the low-income children would not receive holiday presents. This marks the third year that the Kaiser Permanente team has answered the students鈥� letters to 鈥淪anta鈥� by buying and wrapping holiday gifts, said emergency department nurse Steven Patras, who is organizing the event.

Susan B. Anthony Principal Lee Yang said he was grateful for the kindness and consideration shown by Kaiser鈥檚 staff. 鈥淭hey are great role models for our children,鈥� he said. 鈥淭hrough their actions, students are learning how to make a difference in the lives of others.鈥�
