PLEASE READ ALL REQUIREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS!

The For a Day Foundation hosts themed therapeutic play events for children with cancer and other life threatening illnesses. These events are shown to boost self esteem and reduce anxiety related to their treatment and hospital stay. With our events, such as Queen for a Day and Hero for a Day, we bring smiles to children that haven’t smiled or laughed in weeks.

The Central Florida Chapter is looking for volunteers to participate in our hospital visits at

You can contact the Central Florida Chapter by completing the Volunteer Match Survey or by emailing Jessica at CentralFL@foraday.org.
