While our care packages are created for children in treatment, we know siblings are on this journey, too. That's why, when possible, we include a small gift just for them.
If you're requesting a care package, be sure to include sibling information on the form so we can make their day a little brighter, too.

Hospital stays can be long. Isolation can make them feel even longer.
This sweet note from a mom reminded us why these care packages matter:
"Thank you to Ellie's Hats for doing what you do to put a smile on my daughter's face and for other kids and families like us. Being in the hospital and in isolation is a bummer, but opening up a package definitely cheered her up."
A package filled with surprises won't change a diagnosis, but it can brighten a difficult day, create a moment of excitement, and remind a child that people are thinking about them.
Thank you for helping us bring those moments of joy to kids facing cancer. 💜

Nothing makes us happier than hearing from families after a care package arrives.
"Thank you so much for the wonderful care package! Adelaide and Meatball loved everything, especially the blanket and the rock painting. We had to whip out the rock painting right away! Thank you for your kindness and generosity."
Thank you for sharing this sweet update with us, Adelaide! Seeing kids enjoy their care packages is what it's all about.
If you know a child battling cancer who could use a little extra encouragement, care packages can be requested through the link in our bio.

Some moments are bigger than a care package. 💛
When Hunter’s mom reached out to Ellie's Hats, she shared that Hunter has acute lymphoblastic leukemia and has endured multiple long hospital stays — including two that lasted more than 30 days.
She also shared that through it all, Hunter has stayed fun, brave, and full of life. He loves fishing, and he can sing just about every Zach Bryan song by heart. His music has carried him through some of his hardest days.
So we knew we wanted to do something extra special.
Along with his care package, Hunter received two tickets to see Zach Bryan live in concert in his hometown.
His mom later told us that when he opened the box, he was speechless.
“This is something he will never forget.”
And that is exactly why we do what we do.
Thank you to everyone who supports Ellie's Hats. Your donations help us send joy, comfort, and unforgettable moments to children fighting cancer. 💛

Eli recently received an Ellie's Hats care package, and we loved hearing how excited he was to open it. 💛
These boxes are created to give kids something that’s just for them during a really difficult season.
Inside are items like hats, blankets, toys, crafts, activities, and gift cards...small things that can bring comfort, help pass the time, and remind families that people are thinking about them.
Every care package we send is made possible by our community. Donated items, sponsored packages, and financial contributions all come together to help us continue reaching children across the country with support that feels personal and meaningful.
Want to help?
➡You can sponsor a care package or donate through our website.
➡Families with a child in treatment can also request a care package completely free of charge through our website.

At Ellie’s Hats, everything we do comes back to one simple goal: making sure kids and families facing childhood cancer feel supported in meaningful, tangible ways.
Whether it is hats, care packages, or other forms of encouragement, our focus is on more than the items themselves. It is about comfort in hard moments, dignity in the day-to-day, and reminding families that they are not alone in this journey.
