Bounce Childrens Foundation

To transform the lives of chronically ill children, and their loved ones, shifting all from surviving to thriving.

Bounce back kits – these fun-filled, custom-designed, and uniquely themed care packages are sent to bounce families to offset the tremendous amount of time they spend locked-in at home due to their child’s medical condition. These “boredom busters” typically recognize holidays/important milestones and include fun and distracting items such as: games; books; videos; arts & crafts; stem projects; gift cards; recipes; and more. Boosting spirits for all, they provide joy and resilience building “inspiration-in-a-box” for the entire family.

Bounce it forward – never knowing when the next medical crisis will strike, bounce families do not have the luxury of planning ahead. They miss out on all sorts of high demand activities including: major league sports, concerts, theatre, cultural exhibits, special events, holiday shows/exhibits, and other unique productions. Tapping into a network of generous individuals/organizations who pay-it-forward by donating excess tickets, bounce members participate in these fun and otherwise inaccessible events. Bounce it forward outings provide unexpected moments of fun and create amazing memories.
