Team
Nolan’s mission is to champion their goals of raising local CHD
awareness and financially assisting local families with CHD babies;
through fund raising efforts during their initiatives such as their
annual HEART
WARRIORS & ANGELS BEACH WALK
and KIDFEST
events. In February 2019 Team Nolan donated the Nolan Evans Memorial
Bench to Health City’s main lobby, which illustrates CHD awareness
messages for all to see when passing through the hospital’s lobby.
In October of 2019 Team Nolan was able to cover the full cost of the
purchase of a critically needed infant transport incubator for the
Health Services Authority’s - neonatal intensive care unit.
Ms.
Evans expressed her gratitude for His Excellency Governor Martyn
Roper’s continued support of Team Nolan’s initiatives. This
year’s beach walk is proudly sponsored by Logic, Davenport
