A Kevin Kennedy team member gives time to Children's Hospital.

Janis Eubanks, a hard-working Project Coordinator at Kevin Kennedy Associates, dedicates time away from the office to volunteer at Peyton Manning Children's Hospital.

Every week, Janis donates time to be with the young patients and their parents and siblings. From organizing group activities such as creating sun catchers or making sand pictures to playing origami or fun games to disinfecting toys or bringing an extra blanket, Janis believes she is receiving more than she is giving.

"I feel compelled and driven to do so. It feels very natural and right to be there," Janis said. "It's very rewarding when a face lights up when you walk in the room from children who are at the hospital week after week."

Janis and the children enjoy the outdoors when weather permits or sit and play while parents break away for lunch.

Janis plans to continue her work at the hospital. "I know I am making a difference and I am grateful for this opportunity."
