Zephyr’s fourth annual Balloon Drop took us to University Hospital’s Cancer Center and the Haven Center, where we did our very best to bring a little joy to people going through tough times.
Every year, members of the Zephyr staff spend a day inflating all kinds of celebratory balloons and decorations in our offices, which we then take to various places in the community where people who are down on their luck could use a little good cheer and celebration.
This year, we blew up rooms full of Halloween balloons at our Avon, Ohio headquarters. Here two of our staff prepare the ribbons and weights to anchor our foil helium balloons…
After several hours of prep in our Zephyr “staging areas”…
When all the balloons are ready, we load them up in vans and trucks and it’s off to spread some cheer! Here, inside University Hospitals Cancer Center in Westlake, Ohio, our Business Unit Manager Heather Kehl leads the Zephyr team in lining the hallways with Halloween balloons…
Halloween balloons were snuck into patient and procedure rooms, hopefully bringing a little color and happiness to these men and women’s days…
All-in-all, we feel it was another successful Balloon Drop and hopefully we brought some smiles to the unsuspecting people who maybe didn’t have something to smile about on that particular day.
I’d personally like to thank everyone from the Zephyr team who helped pull off another great Balloon Drop, and to Anagram Balloons, who were generous enough to provide all of the balloons used for the drop.
