Six to eight weeks of daily radiation treatments can be particularly challenging for pediatric patients and their families. Our Joy Toys program was created to give children undergoing treatment something to look forward to each week.
Every Friday, pediatric patients undergoing treatment have an opportunity to select a special gift from our Joy Toys cabinet. This becomes an anticipated day for both our patients and their siblings who share in the fun of selecting a gift.
How to Donate
Due to so many generous toy donations, we are currently only accepting gift cards. Gift cards are either given directly to the patient and their family or used to purchase a specific toy at their request. We kindly ask that gift card denominations be between $10-$25, so everyone participating in the program receives a gift of similar value.
