Your gift brings comfort, play and smiles to young patients at UW Health during their most challenging moments.
SwedishAmerican Health Foundation, in collaboration with the VanVleet Family Foundation, The Body Factory and Touching Soles, is excited to launch a month-long toy drive to bring smiles and comfort to young patients at UW Health Women and Children’s Hospital—home to the only inpatient pediatric unit in the Rockford region.
From December 3 to January 3, we’re collecting new, unwrapped toys, stuffed animals, board books and art supplies for UW Health Kids ranging from newborns to age 18. Your generosity will brighten the hospital stays of countless kids this holiday season and beyond.
There are two ways you can help warm a UW Health kid’s heart this holiday season:
1. Support our Virtual Toy Drive online today! Your generous monetary donation helps us meet the needs of our youngest patients year-round.
2. Drop off your unwrapped donation at any of our convenient collection sites:
- UW Health SwedishAmerican Hospital (1401 E. State St., Rockford)
- UW Health Women & Children’s Hospital (1350 Charles St., Rockford)
