DONATE A NEW TOY
Emily’s Toys 4 Joy was founded by our daughter, Emily Fawcett at age 6, after having been hospitalized herself. While in the hospital, she received a new toy from her Child Life Specialist that made her feel better, provided much needed distraction and an opportunity for she and her Child Life Specialist to connect. After her recovery, she said ‘I want every child in the hospital to feel the way that I did when I got a new toy!’ And so we began…
Today, Emily’s Toys 4 Joy serves valley hospitals providing new toys for boys and girls, toddlers to teens. These toys act as therapeutic tools and brighten the day of thousands of children each year. The majority of new toys are collected through our month long drive each October.
A collaborative fund named ‘Emily’s Toys 4 Joy’ has been established at the Arizona Community Foundation a tax exempt 501(c)(3) Arizona nonprofit organization (Tax ID 86-0348306).
