2021 DONATION TRACKER: $100,000 GOAL
Our challenge is very clear:  to manage and grow the volume of cards and electronic systems we send around the world. We need our friends to help us with financial support. Based on the surge of cards we receive each month, we project that we need to raise $100,000 this year.

Achieving our financial goals will support:
  • The cost of donating Portable Gaming Systems/iPads to hospitals, foster homes, and Ronald McDonald Houses across the globe
  • Shipments of at least 100,000 cards this year
  • Improvements to our website, newsletters, and social media outreach to card makers, donors, and volunteers
Here's how you can help: Click the donate button below and please consider a monthly contribution of $10, $20, or even $50.  Every dollar raised goes into the mission of bringing smiles to people of all ages around the world.
