For a child spending the holidays in a hospital bed, a wrapped gift is more than a toy. It is a moment of pure, ordinary joy, a reminder that the magic of the season has not forgotten them.

This December, we will bring Holiday Smiles to more than 500 children in the Oncology, Sickle Cell and Transplant units at Rady Children's Health. Behind every gift is a family facing the hardest season of their lives, and a year-round promise that they will never face it alone: rides to treatment, healthy snacks during chemotherapy, and help with housing, food and emotional support.

Our goal is to raise
$100,000, collect 500 toys and 100 gift cards before the year ends.

Join us and be the reason a child smiles this holiday season.

Bring Your Team to the Magic

Turn your company's holiday spirit into something children will never forget.

Our sponsors bring their teams together for gift wrapping parties, host toy and gift card drives at the office, and volunteer at our hospital holiday parties.

Every level puts your name behind the season's brightest moments, and the higher levels come with exclusive benefits for your employees.

Keep the Care Going All Year

The holidays end, but a child's treatment does not. $8,060 provides a full year of care for one child: every ride to treatment, every snack bag during chemo, every hand held along the way. Your gift helps us reach $100,000 and keeps that care going long after the decorations come down.
