The mission of the Purple Playas is to provide support and resources in the area of pediatric chronic illness and to gift smiles to children and their families.
Our 3 Goals:

Provide social-emotional resources and information on coping with medical trauma to support families and children impacted by chronic illness.� Provide funding and resources to providers/families of children with chronic illness to bring smiles to children�s faces. For example: funding to camps that support children with chronic/complex illness, food/gas cards to get to treatment, gaming systems for hospitals, durable/medical equipment not funded by another means, family fun days to connect families, etc.� Support fellowships/scholarships in high need pediatric care with a critical shortage, beginning with pediatric rheumatology.�
We also have our first fundraising event scheduled for March 29 and 30, 2019!� We are hosting our very first annual Purple Playas Charity Golf Tournament, preceded by a �Pairings Party�. Our Pairings Party is sure to be loads of fun with our engaging host, yummy appetizers, and auction items. And we will auction-off some local celebrities to the highest bidders to join your golf teams the next day.� Tickets to the Pairings Party are $25 and anyone is welcome.� And if you are interested in attending, golfing, sponsoring, and/or donating for our auction, please contact us on our website and we would be happy to send you the information.
