Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic nearly a year ago, we have come to appreciate the hard work of our nurses and doctors more than ever before. They have worked tirelessly and put in ungodly hours day after day, all to take care of their patients and do their jobs to the best of their ability.
This year, Valentine s Day is about more than conversation hearts and expensive bouquets of roses. Show a Central New York healthcare worker your appreciation by sending them a virtual valentine for February 14.
Upstate Golisano Children s Hospital in Syracuse is encouraging the community to take a few minutes to send an e-valentine to the hospital s frontline workers. It truly only takes a moment to fill out some quick information and personalize a message to those who have dedicated themselves to Central New York.
Dads and daughters in Central New York will soon be taking their tradition to their living rooms as the annual Father Daughter Valentine Ball goes virtual amidst the coronavirus pandemic.

All proceeds from the Father Daughter Ball benefit Upstate Golisano Children s Hospital in Syracuse, and both tickets and sponsorship opportunities are now available online. Tickets for one couple cost $45, and each additional daughter costs $10.
