Donation Items Wish List

Donating toys, books, clothing or family items makes a big difference for patients and their families when they need it most. These items are given to patients and their families by our Child Life Team to celebrate holidays, birthdays and achievements in their treatment. These donations also help supply our playrooms or help patients through particularly tough days.

Donations can be brought to the front desk at Phoenix Children’s Hospital and the Guest Services Representatives will be happy to assist you. If you have a large quantity of items to donate or need additional information please contact 602-933-8697 (TOYS) or [email protected]

A few quick guidelines:

 Please make sure that all toys are new and paints and glues are non-toxic.  Please do not donate play guns or war toys, latex balloons, scary action figures, candy, gum or other food.  New books in both English and Spanish are always needed.  Gift Cards are very useful and always appreciated. Smaller denominations are best.  The most requested items for each age group are in bold.  Age groups that always seem to have the highest need for donations - infants, toddlers and adolescents. Phoenix Children's and our patients and families are appreciative of all donations throughout the year!
