This fall and winter, through our "Stock the Shelves" campaign for Lurie Children’s, our mission is simple: to ensure that every child spending the holidays in the hospital is able to experience the joy that this season brings. And we believe that with your support, we can make it happen.

Your gift will help our team prepare for the holidays and purchase gifts, games, and supplies to make every child’s holiday happier. Monetary donations allow our team to purchase exactly what our patients need and ensure we have something for every age, ability and interest this season.

Here are just a few examples of how your dollars can help:

$10 can provide a jigsaw puzzle to help patients’ coordination and focus

$25 can supply crayons, paper, paint and other arts and crafts supplies to provide opportunities for creativity and relaxation

$50 can provide board games for all ages

$100 can help create sensory kits stocked with items to help support and calm patients with disabilities and sensory or mental health issues who may have more difficulty

$150 help purchase iPads to provide engaging digital opportunities patients

$500 can support the Family Services team who purchases and distributes toys and supports patients and their families during difficult times

$1,000 can purchase 10 adaptive communication toys for patients to take home

All donations are tax-deductible and will be acknowledged by Lurie Children’s Foundation.
