Wedding Couple Gives Back by Donating to Interplast

When Stephanie Bush and Juan Pablo Pecci decided to get married, they wanted to thank her parents (Steven and Lori Bush, Interplast board member) and give back to society at the same time.  They generously asked their wedding guests to donate to Interplast in lieu of presents.

As the parents of five children, Stephanie and Juan also wanted to help children and parents who live in poverty with little access to health care.  “I know that I grew up with privileges that so many children do not have.  Juan is from Argentina and when I visited there, I saw the poverty and conditions in which some children live,” said Stephanie.  “It was difficult to see, especially when you have children of your own, and I knew that I wanted to help in some way.”

“We are passionate about Interplast because of my step-mother’s commitment to the organization and because of how it helps so many children around the world,” continued Stephanie. “Asking guests to honor my parents and our celebration by donating to Interplast was a great way to give back---and it meant a lot to us to do it.”

Interplast is deeply grateful to the Bush-Pecci family for their support and generosity. We send them our best wishes for a wonderful life together.  They were married on May 29, 2010 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
