Julia Hart Welcome Teenagers!
Philanthropy is a big word, but it is even a bigger idea. It is about staying involved and making generosity part of your life.
Did you know that children's hospitals are different from regular hospitals? They are special places where everything is kid-size and child-friendly and where pioneers of new medicines give even the sickest children the chance to become healthy. They also offer prevention programs to teach children how to keep from getting sick or hurt in the first place.
If you have never been a patient at a children's hospital, that's great! But not everyone is so lucky. Growing up is COOL - Being sick isn't.
Do you want to make birthday presents really count?
Do you want to turn your fundraiser into a GREAT event?
Here's how:
- Select a hospital that you want to help.
- Register your party or event and tell your friends that you want to raise money for that hospital. If you need help finding a hospital, e-mail us.
- After your event make your presentation to the hospital and fill out a Peter Pan Gift Application. We will send a $100 gift in your name to the hospital.
- We will recognize your philanthropy with an official Peter Pan Children's Fund certificate and Order of Pan Crest pin.
You may also designate the Peter Pan Children's Fund as the beneficiary of your party or event. The money will be used to fund special hospital programs that teach children how to survive in a fire or the importance of wearing a bicycle helmet.
