Volunteers from Lockheed Martin and Inova Spread Holiday Cheer

Falls Church, VA – (December 15, 2010) – InovaCares Clinic for Children welcomed a special visitor this holiday season. Santa Claus stopped by for a visit on December 10 to see families and hand out gifts. About 500 clinic patients attended and each one received a wrapped gift and a book.

The party was co-sponsored by Inova Health System and Lockheed Martin. Employees from both organizations volunteered their time to give the children a Christmas treat.
