Joy in the Cause delivers care packages to children in the hospital, in hospice, heading to St. Jude's or even at home. They provide care packages for all of the siblings of the children fighting cancer as well. Each care package will contain your board game or activity book. 

Do you know someone who could use a Joy in the Cause care package? They make them for kids of all ages. If you would like to provide a care package for someone, Joy in the Cause has a variety of specialty stuffed Mavis Pearl dogs for you to adopt for $100. Donors fill out a care card and it will be delivered with the package to a child or family. 

Joy in the Cause is a non profit 501c3 charity whose mission is to provide care, compassion, and joy one personal act of kindness at a time, helping those with life altering illness and special needs. Why does Joy in the Cause need board games? See this Facebook post.
