MGHers make a difference every day in the work they do. A select group recently was recognized at a special reception Sept. 5 to celebrate their achievements through the MGH Making a Difference grant program. The program offers an award of up to $5,000 to support employees' ideas for improving patient care service. At the celebration, MGH recipients displayed posters describing each creative project.

Applications for the 2003 Making a Difference grant program now are being accepted with a deadline of Oct. 1. For more information, call (617) 726-1816.
