BC Children’s Hospital Wish List
At BC Children's Hospital our primary concern is the comfort and well-being of our patients and their families.
You will find an attached listing of age appropriate toys & gifts needed and acceptable to BC Children’s Hospital.
Here are a few guidelines, which need to be followed:
All donations must be new and NOT wrapped. Toys need to be
inspected so they can be matched with the appropriate child.
Please, no toys or action figures with weapons or violent themes
such as guns, knives, swords, or other projectiles.
Due to infection control and allergies, we CANNOT accept used
toys of any kind. This includes stuffed animals that have only been
on display.
