    2024/02/27

    This time on Love, The Nilsens, we're discussing all things Nilsen's Radiance -- the service project that Alyssa started. Nilsen's Radiance is a service project born out of passion that Alyssa has started to help women in hospitals that may be staying for longer-than-expected periods of time. After having stayed in the hospital for a prolonged period of time and experiencing, firsthand, what it's like, Alyssa now wants to help brighten other people's experiences in the hospital.
