Children’s Hospital Heroes

Planting Joy in Every Independent Children’s Hospital.

Research shows that therapeutic play can reduce anxiety, improve cooperation with treatment, accelerate recovery, and boost emotional resilience. Yet many hospitals lack the funding to support child life specialist fully and they often rely on donations for basic supplies.

Our Children’s Hospital Heroes campaign supports child life specialists, the often-overlooked emotional first responders in pediatric care by providing Smile Kits and Carts, therapeutic tools, and hospital wishlist items. Your support helps bring creativity, comfort, and confidence to children in hospitals nationwide.

Supporting them directly improves patient experience, family satisfaction, and recovery outcomes.
