The goal of Wyatt's Warriors Toy Chest is to provide comfort, encouragement, and joy to children during emergency room visits and other difficult medical experiences. The treasure chests are stocked with toys, games, and comforting items to help ease fear and anxiety for pediatric patients receiving treatments, tests, or procedures.

Wyatt’s Warriors Toy Chest began in 2014 after Wyatt, a young boy diagnosed with Burkitt’s Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, endured more than 119 days in the hospital, including extended stays in the pediatric intensive care unit while receiving intensive chemotherapy treatments. Following his treatment, Wyatt shared with his grandfather that hospitals should have treasure chests for children because hospital procedures were often much scarier than visits to a regular doctor’s office.

Inspired by Wyatt’s compassion and determination to help other children, Wyatt and his grandfather designed and built the first Wyatt’s Warriors Toy Chest and dedicated it to the University of Kentucky Children’s Hospital in December 2014.

Since then, Wyatt’s Warriors Toy Chest has expanded to 10 chests at seven locations throughout Kentucky. Each chest is brightly painted with child-inspired artwork, equipped with wheels, and filled monthly with toys and treasures for pediatric patients. The treasure chests are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, allowing nurses and caregivers to bring comfort directly to children during challenging moments.
