Help us celebrate what would be Maddie’s 8th Birthday by donating toys for other kids! We will be launching the 2024 Toy Drive in April!

Our daughter Madison LOVED everything about toys!
The year she was at Golisano Children’s Hospital was spent playing, crafting, and making up amazing stories with the toys she had on hand.
To help us celebrate Maddie’s 8th Birthday consider donating a new unwrapped toy to be distributed to area hospitals and children in need of joy. Her birthday is April 16 but we will be collecting toys all month!
If you would prefer to send a toy through Amazon directly to us, reach out and we’ll share our address. Or check out this Amazon Wish List!

Toy Drive Finale Event – Saturday April 27
Our Maddie loved toys! They helped her imagination to blossom and more importantly they helped her through her long hospital stays while fighting Leukemia. Maddie’s face would light up whenever anyone dropped a toy off!
Every year during Maddie’s birthday month we will be collecting toys and other items to give to area hospitals and organizations in need. At the END of the month, we celebrate! We will be celebrating Maddie and her memory and her love of toys. We also want to honor some special guests that made a difference in Maddie’s life and our own.
This year the Maddie Toy Drive Finale takes place on Saturday April 27 at 2pm at Risen Christ Church, 1000 Moseley Road in Fairport, NY.
Activities at the event include:
+ Dance party (Maddie loved to dance!)
+ Family friendly field-day games
+ Food, friends, fun and fabulous prizes

Participants are encouraged to dress up, dress down, or dress in theme with your team!
