Holiday Giving This holiday season, more than 1,500 children will spend the holidays under the care of nurses and doctors at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh and away from their families. To ensure the highest level of safety this year, toy donation deliveries/drop offs will not be accepted at UPMC Children’s. You can still help our patients and families feel the magic of the holiday season by shopping our online gift registry or by supporting our Child Life Department with a donation to their toy drive fund. You can also easily start your own virtual toy drive fundraiser to help raise the necessary funds for the purchase of toys this holiday season!
