Doughnut delivery brings cheer
Laura Kreiss, CEO of locally owned fundraising app ChangeGiving, made a special St. Patrick’s Day delivery of Krispy Kreme doughnuts to health care professionals and first responders at several North County sites to say thank you. Doughnuts were delivered to Scripps Memorial Hospital-Encinitas, Vista Fire/Rescue Station 6, Rancho Santa Fe Patrol and Rancho Santa Fe Fire/Rescue. Scripps-Encinitas has a special place in Kreiss’ heart, as her late husband, Michael, was treated there for lung cancer several years ago. Her ChangeGiving app simplifies giving by allowing users to donate their spare change to fundraising campaigns of their choice. Visit changegiving.io.

“Something happened during that week,” Albanez said. “She didn’t leave the house. We always wore a mask, sanitized, washed our hands do what we need to do so I have no idea how she got it.”
Albanez said his mother was alert when she first arrived at the hospital, but, over a couple of weeks, her condition worsened.
