Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is transforming Halloween greetings into critical funding for young patients, thanks to an anonymous donor’s pledge to match card submissions with up to $50,000 in donations. The annual card drive invites supporters worldwide to create and send Halloween-themed cards to children undergoing treatment, offering a festive connection to a holiday they might otherwise miss.
Last year’s outpouring of support demonstrated the broad reach of the initiative, and organizers hope to replicate that success. Every card received by the Oct. 31 deadline will trigger a donation from the generous benefactor, bolstering CHLA‘s commitment to providing remarkable care. The effort aims to lift spirits and foster a sense of inclusion for patients navigating challenging medical journeys.
Cards must be submitted by Thursday, Oct. 31. Individuals interested in participating can find more information and submit cards virtually at chla.org/halloween.
