Light the Way

to a brighter holiday for the kids

Light the Way is Rady Children’s annual holiday initiative to bring joy to our patients and provide critical funding to the Hospital.

Bring joy and light to kids this holiday season by giving to Rady Children’s Hospital-San Diego during our annual Light the Way campaign. Your gift enables us to provide best-in-class care alongside leading-edge research found only here.

From simple moments of giving back to special celebration events in the community, YOU can help Light the Way for patients at Rady Children’s.

Why Light the Way?

Each year, Rady Children’s works with the community to bring holiday magic to the kids and families that must spend their holidays at the hospital. We rely on generous donations from our community members to fund events, decorations, toys, and parent-child bonding experiences throughout the holiday season.

Join us as we light the way to a brighter holiday season.
