Child Life Wish List

Child life specialists provide activities for children while they are at our facilities. Whether it is a visit from Santa for those children in the hospital during the holidays or coloring for children during their chemotherapy treatment, play therapy plays a critical role in the healing process and helping a child feel normal. Materials used by Child Life are provided each year through generous donations.  Bring a little joy to a child’s hospital or clinic visit by donating items from our Child Life Wish List.  To make an in-kind gift from the wish list, please contact Child Life at 706-721-5503.
