Boulineau’s IGA recently completed its Children’s Miracle Network Summer Balloon Campaign benefiting McLeod Children’s Hospital. During the four-week campaign, $3,163.93 was donated by staff and customers. The funds raised will benefit McLeod Loris Seacoast Pediatric Rehabilitation.

“Boulineau’s believes in giving back to our local community and supporting needed medical services for children in Horry County,” said Frank Boulineau, Boulineau’s owner. “Together, our staff and our customers helped to make this campaign a great success.”

All of the funds raised will directly benefit children treated at McLeod Loris and McLeod Seacoast which are a part of McLeod Children’s Hospital. These donations will help provide specialized programs and services needed in the treatment of children.
