It doesn’t take the skill of Harry Houdini or David Copperfield to make a child smile.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit, we provide hospitals with the equipment and know-how to transform hospital volunteers into volunteer magicians.
We were founded in partnership with Children’s Hospital Colorado and are currently focused on building a world-class magic program here in Colorado.
Our Mission
We measure our success in children’s smiles and parent’s “thank yous”. As an organization, we seek to serve the following groups:
Patients & Their Families: Whether for two minutes during a hospital check-in or for an hour with a patient in long-term care, we look to serve as a small symbol of the wonder that happens in children’s hospitals across the country
Hospitals and Their Associated Volunteers: We provide the infrastructure for hospitals to transform volunteers without any background in magic into effective performers in the hospital environment; Volunteers trained through the program span the range from junior volunteers to retirees and everyone in-between
“As an employee at Children’s Colorado, and especially as a mom, I’m so grateful to have these amazing volunteers bringing joy and magic to patients and families!”
how we help
hospital magic know-how
Implementing a successful hospital-based magic program has complexities - which we help to navigate based on prior experience
Magical Infrastructure
We provide infrastructure for hospitals to get their volunteers up and running — from a curated inventory of easy-to-perform magic to training courses
Professional Magician sourcing
We coordinate with professional magicians to secure the thoughtful donation of their time for stage shows that reach many patients simultaneously
financial support
We endeavor to ensure equipment costs don’t get in the way of a hospital’s ability to provide moments of magic
