Every day there are more than 800 children coming to UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Ambulatory Clinics and 300 children staying overnight in the inpatient rooms.
Patients like Ryker, who has been coming to Children's since he was born. At five years old, you can imagine that he wants to play with toys and craft and needs to be entertained and distracted during hospital stays. Ryker knows when he comes to UPMC Children's, not only will he feel better because of the care, but because of the toys too.
Help ensure that toys, games, art supplies, and more are available to each patient by donating or starting your own fundraiser. Your support helps provide laughter and smiles and gets kids out of bed and active helping them get home faster.
