Aug. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- VALHALLA (Summer 2012) - Blythedale Children’s Hospital was recently awarded a Wells Fargo Community Partners grant for $1,000.  Through the Community Partners Program, Wells Fargo retail banking stores explore the needs of their local community and select a non-profit organization or school to receive a $1,000 grant.  In 2011, Wells Fargo donated $8.1 million to local non-profits and employees logged more than 12,000 volunteer hours in New York. Blythedale was nominated for the grant by members of the Chappaqua office, who toured the Hospital in mid-summer 2012.
