Scarlet Sparkle Boxes are thoughtfully curated care packages created to bring joy, comfort, and a little magic to medically complex children during some of their hardest days.

We founded Scarlet's Sparkle Boxes in honor of our daughter Scarlet, who was diagnosed with Diffuse Astrocytoma, a rare and non-operable brain cancer. Despite everything she faces, Scarlet lives each day to the fullest, with incredible strength, unstoppable sass, and a heart that shines just as brightly as her name.

During Scarlet’s early days at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, our family received countless care packages filled with small comforts and surprises. Scarlet quickly decided she wanted to share the joy she felt when she opened those packages. We helped her repackage items into gift bags and she joyfully passed them along to every child she met.
That simple act sparked something special: her love for “leaving a little sparkle wherever you go.”

Today, that sparkle lives on through Scarlet Sparkle Boxes.

Each box is filled with carefully selected items, such as a cozy blanket, fun accessories, crafts, activities, toys, and comforting essentials, chosen to lift spirits, encourage smiles, and remind children and families that they are not alone. Every box represents hope, kindness, and the powerful impact of community.

Scarlet’s Sparkle is a nonprofit organization run entirely on donations and sponsorships. Every contribution directly supports the creation and delivery of Sparkle Boxes to children who need them most. Your donation helps us continue spreading joy, one box at a time.

When you give, you’re not just donating items, you’re helping create moments of happiness, comfort, and light during incredibly difficult journeys.

Help us leave a little sparkle wherever we go.
