For our "non-Facebook friends", we are so very excited to announce that our family has started a non-profit: Purple Playas Foundation! And we have a website! Wahoo! Go check it out at: https://purpleplayasfoundation.org/
The mission of the Purple Playas is to provide support and resources in the area of pediatric chronic illness and to gift smiles to children and their families.
Our 3 Goals:
Provide social-emotional resources and information on coping with medical trauma to support families and children impacted by chronic illness. Provide funding and resources to providers/families of children with chronic illness to bring smiles to children’s faces. For example: funding to camps that support children with chronic/complex illness, food/gas cards to get to treatment, gaming systems for hospitals, durable/medical equipment not funded by another means, family fun days to connect families, etc. Support fellowships/scholarships in high need pediatric care with a critical shortage, beginning with pediatric rheumatology.
