SeriousFun Children’s Network: Sending Sick Kids to Camp

A special message from the SeriousFun Children’s Network.

Every child deserves the chance to be a kid, especially during the holiday season. Nobody believed this more than Paul Newman. Paul had a vision to create a place for children with serious illnesses where they could have fun and let loose.  More than two decades ago, he founded a camp where the joy of playing and laughing had a profound impact allowing children to reach beyond their illnesses and discover strength, hope and resilience.

From this one camp, SeriousFun Children’s Network has become a global community of 29 camps and programs providing life-changing experiences to children with serious illnesses and their families, free of charge.

Today, SeriousFun serves more than 380,000 children and their families, including over 250,000 children from 50 countries. Paul always said, “It’s all about the kids.” In keeping with his philosophy, 100% of every donation directly benefits camps and kids, because 100% of the administrative expenses of SeriousFun are covered by their Board of Directors and Newman’s Own Foundation.

If you are interested in learning more about SeriousFun, we encourage you to watch and share the organization’s new PSA, “Paul’s Vision,” featuring Julia Roberts and Bruce Willis.

Let the fun begin!
