Tuesday Aunties bring smiles and positive experiences to children and their families during hospitalisation. Every Tuesday, or on one Tuesday each month, our volunteers visit the paediatric wards with toy trolleys, allowing children to choose toys, books, stationery or any items they enjoy. Through these simple interactions, we aim to make their hospital experience more positive and provide emotional support to children and their families.
A long-term collaboration between Happy Cure and Kapit Hospital since 2019, supporting the hospital's paediatric ward through sponsored items and initiatives to improve the facilities and environment for children. The project includes an annual Christmas gift program, Tuesday Aunties Program, set up study and play corners, a baby shower room, and ongoing support based on the hospital's needs.
Our biggest event of the year, bringing the joy of Christmas to children spending the festive season in hospital. Every year, volunteers prepare 600–1,000 gifts for distribution across 4–6 hospitals, depending on the available budget, with a special focus on children from underprivileged families.
Caring Clown is a program that brings presence, gentle humour and emotional support to children and families in the hospital. Rather than simply entertaining or making people laugh, the Caring Clown creates a safe and positive emotional space through meaningful interactions, helping to bring moments of joy and comfort during hospitalisation.
“What makes you happy?”
A storytelling initiative that explores what happiness means to different people. Alya connects with 26 individuals and invites each of them to share their answer to “What makes you happy?” The project aims to create awareness of the importance of happiness and emotional well-being, while showing that happiness can come in many different forms and from the simple moments in life.
Volunteer on a ward visit, donate, or partner with us to bring these programs to more children.
Happy Seed is a community-driven initiative focused on creating child-friendly environments in hospitals. The program aims to make hospital stays more comfortable and less intimidating for children through facility improvements, fundraising activities, awareness projects, and family bonding opportunities.
The Ark is a centre supporting B40 families and children with autism through personalised intervention, parent support, play programmes and school-readiness activities. Happy Cure supports The Ark by promoting its work, helping with fundraising when needed, and sponsoring family outing activities to create meaningful experiences for the children and their families.
