Anonymous Donor Rents Entire Ski Resort For a Day So Sick Kids Can Enjoy Private Day on Slopes

An anonymous donor has rented out an entire Maine ski resort for the day so families from the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital can enjoy a private day on the slopes, reports News Center Maine.

One hundred thirty-nine patients, families, and medical staff from the hospital signed up Wednesday for a day of free snowboarding and skiing, plus food, at Black Mountain in Rumford.
