When COVID-19 struck New York, as a child life volunteer at New York Presbyterian Hospital, I saw a need for volunteers and patients to reconnect. Thus, I developed an application that would allow child life coordinators to schedule virtual meet ups between child life volunteers and patients. This multi-dimensional application not only allows for both administrators and volunteers to interact, it also provides the ability for new volunteers to apply.
