Corporate Volunteerism IN NYC
Give back with your company
Your New York City team can create meaningful moments for children with medical challenges while building connection, purpose, and team spirit all through the healing power of PLAY! (Serious fun included.)
We partner with organizations of all sizes throughout New York City and across the country, for customizable service opportunities, in office or remote, that let teams step away from the day-to-day to make a real difference. Pack activity kits, join a hospital visit, or work with us to create something meaningful, and watch your team build connection while changing a child's life.

Volunteer Offerings
Three ways to volunteer

Here To Party
We can turn a hospital playroom into a partyroom with arts and crafts, games, and activities and connection for kids facing medical challenges. Every event is customized to the facility and can be themed to the season (think Valentine's, summer carnival or winter wonderland). Want to keep the party going? Set up a corporate chapter for recurring in-person volunteering.

Kits For Play
Help us pack the play. Your team can assemble curated activity kits filling them with supplies for everything from puppet-making to crown-crafting to scrapbooking. These kits are delivered directly to pediatric patients when a volunteer or care team member can't be there in person. It's a simple, engaging, hands-on way for your team to connect while packing kits side by side.

Custom Partnerships
Do you have a larger group? Perhaps a specific goal or a vision beyond a single event? Great! We will design a custom experience around your needs whether that's a multi-city day of service or a recurring companywide program. Whatever the scale, we'll build it around what matters most to your team.

FAQs
Why does corporate volunteering matter?
Corporate volunteering builds workplace morale and strengthens brand perception, plus it's good for your team, too. In one national study, 93% of volunteers reported an improved mood immediately after participating.
My company has an Annual Day of Service. Is this something Project Sunshine can accommodate?
Absolutely! We customize volunteer opportunities for companies of any size, industry, or location. Fill out our Corporate Inquiries form and we'll take it from there.
How many employees can participate?
Here to Party events typically run 5–10 volunteers. Kits for Play events typically run 20–50, but the program scales and we've supported groups as large as 800.
How far in advance do we need to plan our volunteer project?
Please allow for one month lead time for office-based Kits For Play events and two months for hospital-based Here to Party.
What is a typical schedule for a day of volunteering?
For Kits for Play events, we recommend 60-90 minutes for each volunteer to impact 12-15 pediatric patients and family members. Because these events are held on-site at the company’s location, there is flexibility around the time of day scheduled. All Here to Party events run about 3 hours in total (not including transportation to the hospital site): 1.5-2 hour programs with 30 minutes of prep and 30 minutes of clean-up.
Where will we volunteer?
That’s up to you. We can facilitate volunteer programs at company offices, off-site locations, conference centers, and employee's homes for remote volunteer events. Here to Party events take place at one of our 500+ medical facility partners near you.
Will Project Sunshine provide photos of our volunteer project?
Absolutely! We love to capture the magic that happens when spreading sunshine. (Photographs are only snapped and shared when consented, of course). If you choose to take photos, we encourage you to tag us on your social media outlets.
How much does it cost and what does that cover?
All corporate volunteering events require a donation that covers staff management and facilitation, procurement, and distribution of materials, and shipping costs. We work with a variety of budgets and can work with you to customize the experience to your needs.
I had the best day volunteering with Project Sunshine! The activities were organized and appropriate for all ages, which made my job as a volunteer easier. It made me feel great to be able to give back. I left with a smile on my face, knowing that I made children smile."
