“The Jester has such a positive impact on all our patients and it fits right in with our literacy program at CHLA. Most of the time, hospitalized children don’t feel like reading but in this case, it becomes healing.” --Wendi Kellaris, Manager, Volunteer Services, Children's Hospital Los Angeles
“I would like to thank Comcast for sponsoring this Jester & Pharley Read-A-Thon so that McKinley students can make a difference in the lives of many children.” --Lydia Adidjaja, 2nd Grade Teacher, McKinley Elementary, San Jose, CA
“We want to thank Vistas for Children, Inc. for bringing this innovative and creative mobile cart to our clinic. It will allow children to transport themselves from the expected regimen of their therapy to the magical world of The Jester. Siblings will enjoy the humorous dolls and books while their sister or brother is receiving treatment. Parents will enjoy the quiet time while their children are entranced with The Jester and its inspirational message.” --Jill Gisselere, Director of Development, Pediatric Therapy Network, Torrance, CA
