Every year, thousands of children facing critical health challenges find hope and dignity through Project Sunshine’s life-changing play programs. By providing over 425 hospitals in the United States and international partners in Canada, China, Israel, and Kenya with trained volunteers, we transform sterile medical environments into spaces of joy, connection, and resilience. Our innovative approach alleviates stress, reduces fear, and empowers children to regain a sense of normalcy amid their medical journeys, fostering healing both physically and emotionally.

Since our founding in 1996, we have touched the lives of over 1 million children and families, creating breakthroughs in pediatric care by integrating creative expression, sensory engagement, and socialization into healing. Every donation helps us expand our reach, train more volunteers, and develop new programs that address the unique needs of children battling HIV/AIDS, chronic illnesses, and complex medical procedures. Your support directly fuels these efforts, ensuring that no child faces hospitalization alone or without the comfort of play and human connection.

By joining our community of compassionate donors, you become a vital part of a global movement dedicated to transforming healthcare experiences. Together, we can break down barriers of fear and isolation, turning hospitals into safe havens of hope and joy. Your contribution today ignites a future where every child, regardless of location or circumstance, receives the emotional support needed to heal and thrive. Support Project Sunshine and help create a world where health and happiness go hand in hand for every child in need.
