Project Sunshine

What is Project Sunshine?
Project Sunshine is passionate about kids and big fans of fun and making every day and every smile count. We achieve this goal through various activities, all with the purpose of bringing joy to those who truly need it. We put together "Sending Sunshine" kits with supplies, toys, arts, and crafts for children to use while staying in pediatric hospitals around the country. We also partner directly with hospitals to be able to visit pediatric patients and interact with them in person, playing games, making arts and crafts, or anything to possibly help brighten their day. Volunteers will be able to help with any number of these activities, lifting an underserved population that truly needs joy, laughter, and light in some of their darkest times.

We got to work with kids with disabilities at Brades' Place this semester, and it was so amazing. Playing with these kids and helping give their families & parents a break from the mental load of having a child with disabilities was so awesome. So many families expressed how grateful they were to be able to have a short break and also to see their kids be happy.
When serving soup to families with disabilities, one family had visible stress on their minds. I was so thankful I could relieve them of this one little thing like a lunch.
