Joyful Gifts is a non-profit organization.

Our mission is to bring joy and comfort to children in the hospital through the gift of a new toy. Stuffed animals, toys, games, and other activities that stimulate the mind can significantly benefit children in hospitals. These activities offer a feeling of normalcy that can assist in their psychological and emotional recovery, bringing a smile to their faces even in the toughest times.

We have witnessed the transformative power of a toy in the hospital. Having something to cuddle and play with while navigating frightening situations is vital for children in such circumstances. The thoughtful and compassionate gesture of giving a new toy to a child in the hospital has a profound impact, significantly improving the mental well-being of children undergoing medical testing and treatment.

Beyond the immediate comfort derived from these small tokens, a profound difference is made for these young patients. A toy that engages their imagination and offers a sense of normalcy amidst medical challenges is particularly noteworthy. Toys also help children cope with the less appealing aspects of hospital environments.

For instance, coloring books, games, and arts and crafts supplies play a pivotal role in creating positive distractions. These activities serve to alleviate the monotony of hospital stays, providing children with an outlet for self-expression and mental engagement. In essence, they allow children to be children and not just patients in the hospital.

At Joyful Gifts, we firmly believe in the power of collective action to bring about positive change. Your generous donation can transform a child’s experience from sadness to hope and admiration for the human spirit. Your gesture, no matter how small, is a beacon of light in a child’s life, making their situation just a little bit more bearable. The parents who witness these uplifting moments are grateful to the people like you who make these moments possible.

By joining us in this mission, you become an integral part of a movement dedicated to bringing comfort and joy to children in the hospital. Your contribution, no matter the size, is what makes our work possible and meaningful.

What does Joyful Gifts do precisely?

We use your donations throughout the year to purchase items children’s hospital requests and ship directly to that hospital. These include games, toys, stickers, stuffed animals, art supplies, and other items.

Once a year, we hold our annual “Christmas in July Toy Drive.” Joyful Gifts partners with a hospital and collects toys for that specific hospital. All games, toys, and other items we collect are delivered to the hospital within a few days. This event is the only time we accept donated items for the hospital. Given the nature of the recipients, such as children battling serious illnesses, hospitals have specific requirements for donations. All items have to be new and in the original boxes. We can not store items, nor does the hospital want items that have been in storage.

Which hospitals are we donating to?

Joyful Gifts Christmas in July toy drives have benefited Oakland Children’s Hospital in Oakland, California, and Valley Children’s Hospital in Madera, California. These hospitals are renowned for their exceptional care and dedication to children’s health.

How many toys, games, and other items has Joyful Gifts donated to children in the hospital?

Over 3,000 items! With your donation, we can provide more items each month.
