Summer Solstice

What is Project Sunshine's Summer Solstice Celebration All About

In a word...PLAY!

In 40 words...it's us taking the longest day of sunshine each year (15 hours!) as an opportunity to showcase how important our mission is by encouraging everyone to engage in fun activities and spread the word about the healing power of play.

You had me at PLAY, but go on...

There are many ways to engage with us throughout the month of June when you participate in our first-ever nationwide Play-A-Thon! Register yourself or build a team and commit to PLAY this month. You can attend one of our events or create your own play. However you participate, you be bringing joy to thousands of children while having fun and earning some great swag as well. 

By registering, you will pledge to engage in play activities (whatever that means to you!) starting on June 1 and going until Summer Solstice arrives on June 21*. Once you have registered, you can get support for your efforts from friends and family through our handy fundraising  platform. 

 *If you decide you want to keep playing after that, we won't tell anyone.
