Bring Joy to Kids at UPMC Children’s

A favorite toy, a new game, or a creative activity can bring a welcome moment of fun and comfort during a child’s time at the hospital.

Through the 2026 UPMC Children’s Virtual Toy Drive, you can help make those moments possible. Donations to the campaign support the Child Life Department at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh in purchasing new toys, games, gifts, art supplies, and other items for patients.

Your generosity makes a difference.

By making a gift, you can help ensure that special items and opportunities for play are available to children during their hospital experience. Together, our community can help fill UPMC Children’s with moments of joy, comfort, and smiles.

This program is supported through philanthropy.
