Our StoryMakers

Join our community of passionate monthly supporters

Help children discover a world that’s bigger than their health care challenges

StoryMaker is a monthly giving program to support children and families in our communities. Your monthly gift ensures we have reliable, sustainable funds to support thousands of Island kids and families on their health care journeys.

Our StoryMakers empower families to live in a world beyond their health concerns.
When a child is facing health challenges, the whole world often seems small and confining. Parents and children can feel their lives have been reduced to one difficult story: the story of their health care.
With access to essential health care support and equipment, children have the freedom to discover their best stories and add vibrant new chapters to their lives.
