Julia Hart

In 1992, a young girl named Julia Hart decided to give up birthday presents and raise money for a children's hospital. Her generous gesture would later inspire other young people to become philanthropists. This was the beginning of the Peter Pan Birthday Club.

Read more about Julia and her instrumental role in the Peter Pan Children's Fund.

 

Welcome

The Peter Pan Children's Fund encourages philanthropy by children, young adults, and adults in support of children's hospitals worldwide and associated programs for children that focus on illness and injury prevention, family centered care, research and rehabilitation.

In 1929, playwright and novelist Sir James Barrie gifted the Peter Pan copyright to the Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital (GOSH) in London. Since then, the boy who would not grow up has become a cultural phenomenon and one of the world's greatest philanthropists.

See how one child raised money for her Peter Pan Birthday experience.

The Peter Pan Children's Fund embodies the same spirit as Barrie's gift by using his creation to teach children the power of helping others. This legacy reminds us of the limitless possibilities of children's imaginations and hearts.

We are now on facebook! Please spread the word and join our group. We hope young philanthropists will post their birthday celebration pics on our face book page (also the young at heart) and raise the awareness about supporting children's hospitals the Peter Pan Way.
