Nadine Palmer, Human Resources Coordinator at William B. Meyer, Inc., has organized this event for the last couple of years. She believes that every child has an artistic ability that should be encouraged to flourish. When deciding on the toys and activities for the bags this year, she selected items to help cultivate and develop that creativity and imagination. The bags included puzzles, sketch books, colored pencils, and watercolor sets, among other items.

Team members from all of our service offerings and departments came together and assembled the gift bags. We hand selected and packed each bag with care while listening to holiday music and drinking hot chocolate.

Over the course of one week our team also assembled fleece blankets. During our build-a-blanket event we made over 100 blankets during that week! This year we also made scarves to be paired with gloves to donate to children.

We selected different local hospitals, children’s centers, and charitable organizations from our community to donate the toy bags, blankets, scarves and gloves. These include: Bridgeport Hospital in Bridgeport, CT, Connecticut Children’s Medical Center in Hartford, CT, Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, MA, Why Me & Sherry’s House in Worcester, MA, and the Shehan Center in Bridgeport, CT. Members from our team always enjoy handing out the bags and blankets to the children at the Shehan Center. It is a great privilege to be able to see the joy on their faces.

We also donated scarves and gloves to the New Haven Community Soup Kitchen at Christ Church. David O’Sullivan runs the kitchen at the New Haven Community Soup Kitchen and expressed gratitude: “these efforts of the William B. Meyer team are actually heroic. We have plenty of socks and hats at this time of year but very few gloves and scarves. You have truly made a difference.”

We’re already looking forward to continuing the tradition next year!

The day was orchestrated by Ted Kennedy, Vice President of Sales for William B. Meyer, Inc., Eric Murdock, who played nine seasons in the NBA with the Milwaukee Bucks, NJ Nets, and Miami Heat, and Judge Kevin Doyle of the Connecticut Superior Court. All three are friends who met during their undergraduate days at Providence College.

Together they worked with Terry O’Connor, Executive Director at the Cardinal Shehan Center, to bring the event to life. He commented on the accompanying donation, “William B. Meyer, Inc. continues to make a real impact here. They sponsored a great day of basketball for the kids. And their generous financial support will be put to use for our Art Education Program. 30 kids will be able to attend every day for eight weeks. What a wonderful experience for them.”

Kennedy elaborated on the event and why he felt it was a great opportunity to support the children in the local community: “We thought it would be a real thrill for the kids if we brought in my friend Eric to work with them. It’s not often as a kid that you get a chance to meet an NBA star. Eric is so community-oriented he jumped at the chance and clearly had as much fun as kids. We were happy to facilitate such a great day and, in doing so, support two great organizations in the Shehan Center and the Eric Murdock Foundation.”

Dressed in colorful shirts provided by William B. Meyer, Inc. the kids practiced drills and played games, coached by Murdock and his son, Eric Jr. Murdock shared his thoughts on the camp: “My son. and I truly appreciated the day at the Shehan Center. The kids here are amazing and we enjoyed sharing our off-court experiences with them while helping them develop their skills. William B. Meyer’s donation to my foundation will go directly to the afterschool program at the Martin Luther King Center in my hometown of Bridgewater, New Jersey.”

The players had a wonderful time putting their skills from the weeklong camp to the test while having the chance to show off a little for an NBA star. William B. Meyer, Inc. is looking forward to continuing to sponsor and support events like this one in communities throughout the Northeast that focus on allowing kids to be kids!
