The Pink Blouses of Lenval on November 20
On the occasion of the International Children’s Rights Day, Les Blouses Roses, celebrating their 70th anniversary in 2014, are offering a day of magic to the children of Lenval.
The C-Magic troupe led by Xavier Chatel, which includes magicians, jugglers, and giant plush toys, will go from room to room to meet the children and in the playrooms and emergency areas to provide mini shows and thus bring joy and cheer to the little patients.
This day of events organized by Les Blouses Roses adds to the numerous actions of this association that brighten, with dedication, the daily lives of hospitalized children every week.
