    Overview

    Project Sunshine empowers a dynamic corps of over 15,000 volunteers to bring programming - recreational, educational and social service (HIV and nutritional counseling) - to 100,000 children facing medical challenges and their families in 175 cities across the US, Canada, China, Israel and Kenya.

    Volunteers selflessly donate their time to create program materials and deliver programs. Working onsite, our volunteers relieve the anxiety of the young patients and in a context of fun and play, foster in them the courage and coping skills necessary to confront procedures that lie ahead.

    Project Sunshine volunteers spread sunshine, restoring a crucial sense of normalcy to the pediatric healthcare environment.
