Why A Toy?
To a sick child, a toy is much more than just a gift—it’s a gesture of love. It uplifts fragile spirits and boosts morale. Studies show that positivity can trigger self-healing superpowers. Happy kids heal faster!

To be eligible, charities must be committed to helping improve the lives of children who are ill, special-needs, or suffer from learning disabilities. Charities must be non-profit organizations recognized as tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
