HELP US MAKE THE HOLIDAYS BRIGHTER
This holiday season, your kindness can be the light that helps children and families bravely facing illness or injury through their hardest days.
Light the Way is an invitation for our community to come together for Rady Children’s patients at this special time of year. It is also a celebration of the joy and hope felt by every child when the love and support of their community shines.
Every generous gift, no matter the amount, helps create a brighter future for a child on their journey to healing.
