Brightening Medical Experiences for Inpatients and Outpatients

Project Sunshine is a global network of volunteers that provide play and activities to help children cope while facing medical challenges. Project Sunshine supports the work of child life specialists and other medical professionals in their work of providing psychological, social and emotional support to pediatric patients and families. We design and facilitate developmentally appropriate and adaptive programming in a range of settings within the hospital and outpatient medical facilities.
