At Toys For Hospitalized Children we bring happiness and healing to sick kids, empowering children to be kids - not patients. We provide toys accompanied by hope and encouragement to support children and teens struggling with illness. Our Pediatric Playrooms serve as sanctuaries of joy and healing for hospitalized children.
TH KIDS INC dba TOYS FOR HOSPITALIZED CHILDREN centers its giving on one unusually direct model: in-kind support that puts toys, comfort items, and play experiences into hospitals and other care settings for children. The largest recent grant in the data is $454,248 to Tzaatzium Shel Simcha in Karnie Shomron, showing that the organization can make very large commitments alongside smaller site-level support. Its active programs include Toy Bank, Hospital Welcome Kits, Joy through a Toy: Hospital Toy Distribution, and Designing and Building Pediatric Playrooms, which together point to a funder focused on play as part of pediatric care rather than on cash grants alone. The recent grants list also shows support for pediatric health institutions such as Elizabeth Seton Childrens Reh in Yonkers and Hurley Medical Center in Flint, indicating that the group works through hospital partnerships and related service organizations. Publicly stated focus areas include children's health, hospital support services, play and psychosocial care, pediatric playrooms, and technology for patient comfort through tablets.
A central theme is pediatric play and comfort inside hospitals. In 2025, the foundation gave $19,589 to Elizabeth Seton Childrens Reh in Yonkers for children’s care support, and $12,000 to CHS Center for Pediatric Spec in Babylon, aligning with its playroom and hospital-support programs. Technology also appears in its active programming: Tablets for Teens® provides iPads to adolescent cancer patients to support entertainment, education, and connection during treatment. Emergency and admission support is another thread. The group’s Stocking Ambulances with Toys program supplies first-response units with toys, while Hospital Welcome Kits are designed to ease a child’s transition into the hospital with toys and comfort items. The public taxonomy also points to psychosocial support, special-needs educational settings, and institutional care.
The recent grant list is highly top-heavy: one $454,248 award sits far above the rest, while most other listed grants range from roughly $5,200 to $22,000. The foundation is a public charity, not a funder of individuals, and it makes grants alongside direct in-kind programs. The 2025 list shows repeated support to hospital and child-serving institutions rather than a single annual one-off pattern, with multiple awards concentrated in healthcare settings. Several active programs accept unsolicited requests, including Tablets for Teens®, Stocking Ambulances with Toys, Hospital Welcome Kits, Designing and Building Pediatric Playrooms, and The Happy Shop.
