For more than 25 years, CSR Children’s Foundation has created opportunities to enhance the lives of children challenged by mental or physical disabilities by providing “once in a lifetime” watersport experiences that can be shared with their families.
We started with one hospital and less than 20 children. Today, on one extraordinary day a year, we host nearly 1,000 special needs children and their families on a day of no worries – just pure fun! For one day, they don’t have to think about hospitals, medicine, or therapy. On this particular day, it’s all friend and water therapy – what better prescription for a happy soul?
Kid’s Day families understand the challenges surrounding special needs kids, including Autism, Developmental Delays, Cancer, Smith-Magenis Syndrome, Spina Bifida, Multiple Sclerosis, and Down Syndrome.
This year, as many as 800 kids, their families, and facility support staff are preregistered for Kid’s Day. We have participants from Miller’s Children’s Hospital, CHOC, Tichenor Orthopedic Clinic, Karate For All, and several other organizations.
