Kelsey's Kids
Kelsey

Kelsey’s Kids is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping children with cancer and their families. Since 2002 we’ve donated a crate full of toys to every child entering The Children’s Hospital’s Bone Marrow Unit in Denver. Sterilized toys entertain children during their isolation.

Every Marshmallow Launcher is simultaneously a fund-raiser and an enjoyable tool used by children, their families, and the hospital staff. Launchers encourage deep breathing and promote laughter.
