The holiday season is a time for giving, joy, and connection. But for many children who are hospitalized with chronic illnesses, it can be a difficult and isolating time. That’s where Angelina’s Song, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing music and music therapy to children in hospitals, steps in to make a difference.
This December, Angelina’s Song is teaming up with Nittany MinitMart for a month-long fundraiser that allows you to play a part in spreading joy to hospitalized children. From Dec. 1 through Dec. 31, 2024, customers can simply round up their purchases at any Nittany MinitMart location to support this life-changing mission.
"While our Angelina was in the hospital, she got a lot of toys and gifts, but what really made her day, every day, and brought her joy was music and sessions with the music therapists," said Nicole Miele, Founder and President of Angelina's Song.
Music therapy offers more than just entertainment — it’s a therapeutic tool that can reduce pain, alleviate stress, and bring emotional comfort to children undergoing treatment. Nicole created Angelina’s Song to share that joy with children across the country, inspired by her step-daughter Angelina’s own experiences.
By rounding up your purchase at Nittany MinitMart, you’re directly contributing to this mission. Every cent raised helps fund music therapy sessions, instruments, and other resources that bring light into the lives of children facing medical challenges.
