Big Z Foundation Fundraisers
We envision a world where every family struggling with pediatric illness diagnosis has access to emotional, spiritual, financial and educational assistance. The Big Z Foundation organizes several fundraisers throughout the year to contribute to this mission, and it is our goal to help our community’s families during these tough and trying times.
Big Z Foundation Back-to-School Backpack Drive
From July 1 – August 1, the Big Z Foundation will be collecting school supplies to provide backpacks for children attending school within the hospital, as well as their school-aged siblings. As families navigate the challenges of a catastrophic childhood illness, preparing for a new school year can become one more overwhelming task.
You can help ease that burden by donating needed school supplies. Items may be purchased from our Amazon, Target, or Walmart wish lists and shipped directly to the Big Z Foundation or dropped off at one of our host locations.
Thank you for helping us ensure these children and their siblings begin the school year feeling prepared, supported, and cared for.
