We want to put a smile on the faces of children who are confronted with a hospital stay for a single, chronic, or terminal illness. The Simple Gifts Project wants to spread a little cheer to those children and their families. We carry out our mission by working with school groups, youth groups, scouts and others to fill care bags for children & teens in local hospitals. These care bags are full of coloring books, toys, puzzle books, crayons, etc. Kids helping kids, children spreading cheer to other children, is the foundation for this project's success.^~^We want to put a smile on the faces of children who are confronted with a hospital stay for a single, chronic, or terminal illness.

There is no better feeling than helping someone in need, and there is no better time to learn this than as a child or teen.
