💙 A little extra comfort can make a big difference.

Patients receiving cancer treatment at Tidelands Health will receive blankets and patient care kits thanks to the generosity of Hadwin-White Subaru and Blood Cancer United through the annual Subaru Loves to Care initiative.

As part of its annual Subaru Loves to Care initiative, Hadwin-White Subaru donated 80 blankets and 30 patient care kits for distribution to patients receiving infusion treatments at Tidelands Health Cancer Care Network locations in Myrtle Beach, Murrells Inlet and Georgetown.

The blankets provide warmth and comfort to patients undergoing chemotherapy and other cancer treatments while the care kits include items designed to support patients throughout their treatment journeys.
