WHAT IS WHIPMAS?

WHIPmas is one of our most cherished traditions — an annual event we’ve celebrated since the very beginning of our foundation. While each year looks a little different, our mission remains the same: to bring Christmas cheer to children who need it most.

Thanks to the generosity of three amazing local businesses — Flexible IT, Lazer, Aptheker, Rosella & Yedid, and Palmetto, Mollo, Molinaro & Passarello — we host a WHIPmas Toy Drive each holiday season. Employees donate the most popular and highly requested toys of the year, which we carefully select to guarantee the biggest smiles from pediatric cancer patients and their siblings.

These toys are stored and shared with families during visits throughout the year, making every delivery feel like Christmas morning — not just in December, but all year long. In addition, each Christmas we sponsor a special family, working to fulfill their biggest holiday wish to kids and their siblings in the thick of cancer treatments.
