We know that music, laughter, care, and connection belong in every single child's life. 💜 This is especially true for children and families undergoing the stress of severe illness and hospitalization.
Critical illnesses can be a grueling journey for children and their families, but a little bit of joy can go along way. That's why we're setting our goals even higher with the rising demand of our services. We aim to meet the emotional needs of every seriously ill child in the United States. We aim to create equitable access to our no cost programs for all children, regardless of diagnosis, ability, language, location, age, social economic status, or ethnicity. Here's how we're doing so far:
-291,593 joyful interactions, up 47% from last year
-36,738 kids and teens served, up 33% from last year
-4,985 volunteer hours, donated by over 260 volunteers
Your support makes this possible.
