Patients & families

Is your child in the hospital?

A serious diagnosis turns a family’s world upside down. We can’t change the diagnosis — but we can bring normalcy and joy to the room: consoles and games at the bedside, hospital game rooms, VR, and comfort gifts like Hope the Monkey.

Ask your care team. Many of our 250+ partner hospitals already run GameChanger programs.
Not sure if yours is a partner? Reach out and we’ll help you find what’s near you.
It’s always free for families. Everything we provide is at no cost.

Give a kid something to look forward to.

Your gift becomes a real, specific moment of joy at a bedside — a controller, a console, a game room. With 96¢ of every dollar going straight to the mission, almost all of it reaches a kid.

Give once. Pick an amount and see exactly what it puts in a kid’s hands.
Join the Continue Club. A monthly gift keeps a console ready when a new kid checks in.
Give in honor. Dedicate your gift to someone who loves to play.

Treatment for childhood leukemia — the most common childhood cancer — can stretch across two to three years, and more than half a million childhood-cancer survivors are living in the U.S. today. We’re there for the long road, and for the part of childhood that treatment can’t reach. Source: American Cancer Society; AACR Pediatric Cancer Progress Report (2025) / NCI-SEER.
