Editor\u2019s Note:\u00a0<\/b>This post is part of a series of Helping Hands<\/strong><\/a> stories authored by School of Pharmacy faculty, staff, students, trainees, and alumni who stepped up to assist their family and friends, colleagues, and communities during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/i><\/p>\n

During holidays throughout the year, I like to share baked goods with the Department of Pharmaceutical Health Services Research<\/strong><\/a>, where I work as the graduate program manager. Sharing special treats with my colleagues and students isn\u2019t an option right now, so I reached out to the essential employees I know to provide them with baked goods. I do a no-contact drop-off and include a card thanking\u00a0them for working\u00a0during\u00a0the\u00a0pandemic.<\/p>\n

In three days, I have contributed an Irish Cream Bundt Cake to my local police station and six dozen Andes Mint Chocolate cookies to\u00a0Baltimore\u2019s Veteran\u2019s Affairs Medical Center and a floor at the University of Maryland Medical Center the\u00a0day it became a COVID- 19 floor. It feels good to share a treat to show our appreciation for\u00a0these\u00a0essential employees. I will continue as long as I can purchase baking supplies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
