As we say goodbye to 2024, we’re excited to reflect on the incredible milestones we've achieved together!  This year, we launched our first-ever Pickleball Tournaments in Florida and Maryland, welcomed over 600 participants at our record-breaking 5K at the Maryland Zoo, and celebrated the highest number of sponsorships at our Rock 'N' Roll Bash, thanks to board member Mike DiMayo. We also received more than 26,000 pajamas for critically ill kids, celebrated over 1,000 birthdays, and so much more!

We provided 35,916 programs to 66,630 participants!That works out to more than four programs an hour, every hour of 2024! Your generous donations have made a tremendous impact on critically ill children and their families across the Mid-Atlantic region, parts of the Midwest, Florida, and D.C.

A heartfelt thank you to:
