Thanks to the generosity of FedEx Corporation; Frederick W. and Diane Smith; and Susan and Alan Graf, a place is being built for Le Bonheur families to stay while their child is in the hospital. The FedExFamilyHouse will be the first facility to provide housing for families of patients receiving extended care at Le Bonheur.
