Cotton Patch Café and Sesame Street Live Join to Benefit Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children

March 5, 2008 - PRLog -- From Jan. 21 - Feb. 24, participating Dallas/Fort Worth Cotton Patch Café locations offered a special kid’s menu featuring an option to purchase a Big Bird or Elmo Coloring sheet for $1, benefiting TSRHC. Through the promotion, Cotton Patch Café raised $10,000 for the hospital.

Elmo and Cookie Monster appeared with friends from Cotton Patch Café to present the check to the hospital. During their visit, the group spent time with patients in the hospital’s Dr. Bob and Jean Smith Child Life Center and visited with children in the orthopedic clinic area ( http://www.tsrhc.org/ ).
