The Jeffrey Modell Foundation is proud to organize our Kids with Immune DeficiencieS (KIDS) Day program each year. When we started the Foundation, one of our priorities was to make sure that no other child living with Primary Immunodeficiency would have to be alone.
We created KIDS DAY in 1988 to provide people living with PI an all-expense paid day of community, connection, and most of all, fun, in a casual environment. The program was started for our JMF Kids, but now we’re delighted to include patients from ages 0-102 so that everyone has the opportunity to share experiences, stories, and form lasting connections!
Our 2023 KIDS DAY Extravaganza events 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 learn about ways for your community to enjoy a day of fun in a safe setting.
