Holidays can be hard, especially spending them in a hospital bed.

Students at Lester Park Elementary are determined to make that situation a little better for many patients.

They delivered 40 miniature decorated Christmas trees to patients at Essentia Health and St. Luke’s Tuesday. They actually raised $1,300 to pay for the trees doing chores at home.

With the remaining money, they also bought the patient’s adult and children coloring books, games and other decorations.
