Ways You Can Help

Caring for our region’s children requires both skilled medical professionals and generous community members like you, who are willing to make financial contributions or volunteer their time.

Every donation, no matter how small, is helpful. You can also consider donating new toys, games and other supplies that support children of all ages.

Our current needs include:

  • Baby Dolls
  • Barbies
  • Coloring books
  • Craft kits
  • Crayons
  • Dinosaurs
  • Ear buds
  • Fun [LATEX-FREE] band-aids
  • Hot Wheels
  • Infant rattles
  • Journals
  • Nail polish
  • Play-doh

To meet infection control standards, we’re only allowed to accept new, unused items.

Volunteer

We depend on volunteers to support our patients and their families and to maintain clean and safe playrooms. Learn more about volunteering at UMC. If you’re interested in helping the Child Life Department, please indicate that on your application.
