The Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) of Omaha was created in 1896. Hospitals, caring citizens, and special organizations soon after began to mobilize, realizing the community’s health needs and concerns and the opportunity and difference VNA could make.
Today, VNA of Omaha and Council Bluffs continues to be recognized for being the trusted in-home care provider at the forefront of innovative skilled health services and compassionate caregiving. 120 years ago, VNA was a voice for community health. Today, they are advancing tomorrow’s healthcare.
Carole Patrick, Vice President of Communications and Development at the VNA, stopped by the studios at 33rd and Burt to let Mike Hogan know about the program and the upcoming fundraiser on February 23rd

Our Kids Soup Sunday is always a favorite event on the culinary calendar, with local restaurants and catering operations presenting their finest bowls of soup for judging by a panel of experts. The event is a major fundraiser for Our Kids, an organization which helps to provide medical services and crisis counseling for children who have been victims of sexual abuse and which operates four satellite clinics across Middle Tennessee.
Of course, the current pandemic conditions don’t really lend themselves to hundreds of people gathering to sample soup ladled from common containers, so the event organizers have had to do a little scrambling to keep the spirit alive. Their new iteration will be called Soup Sunday: Homestyle, and it will still offer the opportunity to enjoy a whole lotta soups, just from the safety and comfort of your own home.
