What We Do
Cool Kids Care Packages  |  Cool Kids Connection  |  Special Events
 

Our Cool Kids Care Packages are sent directly to the patients at their homes in an effort to make their lives a little easier and happier by providing the kids and their families with something fun.

The Cool Kids Campaign selects the items in each package according to the child's age and interests. Every package is a little different depending on the situation of the child and family.

If you know of a child who would benefit from a Cool Kids Care Package please download the form below and send it to us. We need to be able to verify that they are a pediatric oncology patient. Please provide us with contact information at the hospital or a letter from their child life/social worker verifying this.

Testimonials


"We would like to thank the Cool Kids Campaign for the lovely package delivered in February. Mekila has enjoyed each and every one of the gifts included in the package. Your organization has brought joy to a little girl's heart. Our entire family thanks you."


Dear Cool Kids,
Thank you for the great care package you sent Olivia. She was so exited that she received a big package. You really brightened her day when she saw the wonderful gifts you sent her. They were perfect gifts with the princess theme. She LOVES princesses and of course, she is one herself. We appreciate your thoughtfulness and everything you do for the children. I have attached a picture of Olivia with her gifts.
Thank you,
 
Patty

"Our son was very surprised to get such a nice package of his favorite things from you. It is very encouraging to get support from people we haven't even met! Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. It made Glenn's day!"


"I am writing on my son's behalf and of course to say Thank You. He received his care package and everything is right up his alley. It is like you know him as well as I do. Thanks again from both of us."


"We would like to thank you for Victoria's really COOL care package. She just loved everything in it. the first things she grabbed was the Sleeping Beauty doll. That is really neat. Victoria is actually thinking about being Aurora for Halloween. As she held tight to the doll, we read the books. Then we just played and played. Thank you so very much. The work you all do just means so much to these kids. It is nice to have someone out there just for them and their feelings."


"Thank you so much for the care package you sent recently to our son Thomas. It was such great timing!! He had a scheduled blood check and office visit to JHH that day. It is always a long day with us taking 2 hours to travel to the hospital and back home. On this Monday, though, the care package arrived from you. It brought such joy to Thomas! He has been looking for Wiis Mario Party 8 since it came out. The day disappeared from his mind and he started playing it right away with his brothers. What your organization does makes a difference in a child's life."


"Thank you so much for Kaidyn's Care Package! She loooves her stuffed Mickey Mouse. She carries it everywhere! She loves her coloring books too! I read her the Big Mouth Frog and she laughed and laughed! Thank you all so much. What a wonderful surprise!


"Thank you so very much-I am completely overwhelmed!!! Your package arrived over the weekend and we decided to wait until this morning to open it to give us something to look forward to after Connor's big brother and sister left for school. Connor excitedly ran home from the bus stop to open his present. He has been playing ever since!! The Under Armour bag is so cool-wait until Megan and Ryan see it!! It will now become his new hospital bag for special toys. Connor LOVES the Matchbox set. We've never seen a "pop-up" play set before. It will be PERFECT for the hospital bed. Connor plays with cars and trucks for hours while sitting in bed-this will be a whole lot of added fun!! He's also already planning to wear his new football PJ's tonight in honor of the Raven's game. Finally, I can't imagine how you knew Chili's is our favorite family restaurant! It's the one place we can go and all find our favorites. Thank you for bringing happiness to our family today."
