Sienna Sarnoff Supports the IV Lily Pad Project
About the IV Lily Pad Project
Eagle Scout David Clark created the IV Lily Pad Project to bring comfort and courage to children undergoing IV treatment. An IV Lily Pad is a cheerfully decorated and sealed wooden platform that sits at the base of an IV pole. Young patients can sit, stand, be pushed on, or enjoy the artwork while receiving infusion treatment—transforming a stressful medical experience into something more pleasant and even playful.
Sienna's Vision
Sienna is working to bring 10 beautiful IV Lily Pads to K. Hovnanian Children's Hospital at Jersey Shore as part of her bat mitzvah service project. Her project includes preparing platforms, organizing community decorating events, sealing each lily pad for hospital safety, and coordinating the final delivery.
We are currently working with K. Hovnanian Children's Hospital to finalize this partnership. Once complete, all 10 lily pads will be delivered to brighten the days of young patients.
“I had to get an IV once, and it was terrifying. I want these lily pads to represent comfort and happiness for kids going through treatment. Even if I can make one person’s day, it would mean a lot to me.”
How Your Donation Helps
Your contribution will cover essential materials, including:
Custom-cut plywood platforms
Base paint and decorating paint
Painting supplies for community decorating events
Medical-grade sealant to protect artwork and ensure hospital safety standards
Sienna's goal is to raise between $1,500 and $2,000. Any funds raised beyond the cost of creating 10 lily pads will either support the creation of additional lily pads or be donated directly to K. Hovnanian Children's Hospital to continue their important work with young patients.
It was all a dream…
What started as one Eagle Scout's mission has grown into a movement of kindness and creativity, inspiring young leaders like Sienna to bring this project to their own communities. Learn more and follow David’s journey by visiting: https://ivlilypad.org/
