I'm Fundraising in Support of SickKids!
Welcome to Valentina’s Christmas Wish!
Valentina has a wish this Christmas and that is to provide all admitted families on Christmas Day with a warm cooked meal. And to hopefully include a Starbucks gift too (if we raise enough funds!)
Valentina knows what it’s like to have an admission at Sick Kids during a holiday. It can feel very lonely and isolating.
So with your help, we’re going to let these families know we are behind them. We are thinking of them. And we are giving them strength to push forward through some of their hardest days.
Each donation is a Christmas hug.
Let’s storm the Sick Kids hallways by spreading some kindness and sprinkling some Christmas magic.
We can’t change their situation but we can help them through it.
All funds will be going to admitted families. If we surpass our goal (like last year), we will be able to provide vouchers, parking passes and gift cards throughout all of 2026!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all of your support💙🤍

To the families spending Christmas at SickKids, Our hearts are with you. We know this season looks very different than you hoped, and being away from home for Christmas dinner can feel especially hard. Please know you are not alone. Your strength, love, and devotion shine brightly, even in hospital rooms, IV poles, and quiet hallways. May you feel moments of peace, comfort, and hope, and may love wrap around you in ways both seen and unseen. We are holding you and your children close in our thoughts and prayers, and wishing for healing, gentle days, and the promise of better ones ahead. With compassion and care, Patrizia and Family

I have continued to see your videos! I am happy to make a donation. Last year our second son (of 4) was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. We were in hospital, not during the holidays, and not at sick kids, but we know what it means to have something unexpected happen, how it pulls the rug from under you and how it impacts the entire family! The only thing we can do is face each day, one day at a time, and yes, do even a small something to give others hope and courage! Good bless you and your family and Merry Christmas !
