KIDS DAY

The Jeffrey Modell Foundation is proud to organize the KIDS DAY program each year for members of our Jeffrey Modell Centers Network (JMCN). KIDS DAY offers patients, their families, doctors and nurses an all-expense paid day of community, connection, and most of all, fun! We want to ensure that no person living with PI has to be alone, and KIDS DAY provides an informal setting to share experiences, stories and form lasting connections.

The 2023 KIDS DAY Extravaganza will be kicking off soon! Past KIDS DAY events have included trips to the zoo or aquarium, baseball games, virtual tours of museums, movies, and more. We encourage groups to think of their own ideas for a fun day, either in-person or virtually.

Ask your immunologist or nurse if they participate in KIDS DAY! No KIDS DAY near you? Ask your care team to contact us at info@jmfworld.org to organize a local event for your community to enjoy a day of fun in a safe setting.

Global Patient Organizations

The Jeffrey Modell Foundation is proud to share global patient organizations that provide support, knowledge, and community for patients and their families to learn and connect with each other. Many of these organizations have received our WIN grant to fund their ongoing efforts and activities.
