Good to know

Is a suggestion a confirmed delivery?

Not yet. First we check the place and its rules, then we plan with the staff. Please don’t promise a visit or gifts until you hear from us. This form isn’t for emergency help.

Does a delivery cost anything?

No. A little sunshine is a gift, not a bill. Every delivery is free to the hospital or shelter.

Can I suggest one person?

We bring gifts for everyone at a place, so we don’t take requests for one child or family. You’re welcome to suggest the ward or shelter where they are.
