Sunrise Day Camp Ice Cream Day
Sunrise Day Camp is for children battling cancer and their siblings. This camp is completely free and relies on donation to keep it going. One way we support the camp is we bring an ice cream truck to camp! All the campers and staff get a free ice cream. We currently do this once a summer. We would like to make this happen more throughout the summer.
Grace's Holiday in July
Every July we take over the conference room at Columbia Presbyterian’s Pediatric Oncology, Hematology, and Transplantation Unit’s Conference room and turn it into a giant Toy Store! Through generous donations that we receive throughout the year, and especially in June and July, we set up this event for the child of the unit. We give out toys and crafts to children and their siblings. We have been fortunate enough to give toys to inpatient and clinic patients, stock the inpatient and clinic toy cabinets, and give out toys to other divisions in the children’s hospital.
You can purchase a new toy directly from our registry, mail a new toy to our organization, or drop off at our home.
