Support Operation Santa: Operation Stock the Playroom!

There’s no place like home for the holidays. However, for the young patients at the Muma Children’s Hospital at TGH, being home just isn’t an option. This year, our pediatric patients shared their Christmas wish list with Santa: a fully stocked Child Life Playroom where they can play, learn, and find comfort during their hospital stay was at the top of their list!

Santa plans to deliver, but he needs your help!

Through the 2024 Operation Santa Campaign, every dollar raised will go toward "Operation Stock the Playroom." Your support will make it possible to purchase therapeutic play toys, cutting-edge technology, art supplies, and positive distraction tools that bring joy and a sense of normalcy back into their lives. By supporting "Operation Stock the Playroom," you’re helping turn fear into fun and scary into safe for our pediatric patients.

Thanks to the generosity of matching donor Tristan Wirfs, Tampa Bay Buccaneers Team Captain, your gift will be matched dollar for dollar up to $25,000!

“I am proud to support the Muma Children’s Hospital at TGH through Operation Santa! Earlier this year, my son was born at TGH, and it brings my family and I comfort knowing this level of care is available to everyone in our community. As the only safety-net hospital in Tampa Bay, TGH provides exceptional care to all, regardless of their insurance status or ability to cover payments. This holiday season, as pediatric patients and their families spend time away from home, I hope you will join me in supporting this initiative to bring joy and comfort to our youngest patients. Together, we can ensure that every child receives the care and support they need, no matter their circumstances.”

Together, we can raise an additional $25,000 from our TGH community to fully stock the Child Life Playroom.

Your gift will bring warmth and cheer to the lives of children who need it most. Thank you for helping make this holiday season brighter for the patients at Muma Children’s Hospital.
