Our Team

A Message From The Executive Director
"It is a privilege to have the opportunity to work with Project Sunshine’s dedicated Board of Directors, talented staff and inspiring volunteers. Together we will deepen and expand our impact, bringing 'sunshine' to children in need, by restoring a sense of normalcy in cold hospital halls and eliciting from brave and generous-spirited pediatric patients joy, inner courage and coping skills necessary to confront challenges ahead.”
