LOVE BOXES

BE KIND,
SPREAD LOVE

Last day to donate is this Monday, March 20th!

The Super Sophia Project was founded as a family initiative to give back and inspire hope for children and their families who are battling cancer. https://www.thesupersophiaproject.ca/

Super Sophia’s Story

As she’s appropriately been named (Sophia Megan) was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia one month shy of her 2nd birthday. Today Sophia is strong, beautiful, healthy, and remains cancer-free.

Love Boxes™ began during the Christmas holiday in 2016. Love Boxes™ are filled by community members with toys, crafts, games etc. But most importantly they are filled with love. To date The Super Sophia has gifted over 20,000 Love Boxes™ to children in hospitals across the GTA, Durham and up North.

Sophia is an ambassador of love and kindness. As she celebrates being free of disease she hopes to continue to spread her message of being kind, spreading love and encouraging others to never give up hope.

The following are filler items they are in need of: Deck of cards, Card Games, Journals, Lip Balms, Sketch pads, Gift cards, Adult colouring books.

Items for babies: Wipes, Rattles, Soothers, Bibs, Baby toys
