Dozens of Children’s Hospital Colorado volunteers recently teamed up with Aurora Public Schools to give Jewell Elementary School a major makeover. Volunteers installed a new fence and swing set. They also landscaped the front of the school, planting many new flowers and trees. Patty Lewis, principal of Jewell Elementary, said she was ecstatic from the moment she found out about the project. “It is Christmas in the spring,” said Lewis. “We feel so humbled and privileged to have all these volunteers beautifying our school.” This is the eighth year Children’s Colorado has partnered with APS. This project would not be possible without the generous sponsors who donated nearly $70,000 from across the state!
