Barnes Hargrove, Ambassador for the Arkansas Children's Hospital and a 10th grade Life Skills student at Joe T. Robinson High School, participated in the event, Hope For Healing, hosted by Hyundai. Ambassadors placed their handprints on a vehicle provided by Hyundai and local dealerships that will be driven across the country to provide awareness for childhood cancer. He also created a piece of art that will be auctioned, and proceeds will help fund pediatric cancer research. It's an honor for Barnes, who has been an ACH patient since he was 3 months old, to be able to represent and give back to a place that has done so much for him! #RHSLIFESKILLS #HopeForHealing #ArkansasChildrensHospitalAmbassador #ChildhoodCancerAwareness
