COMICARE is a 501(c)(3) charity organization created to brighten the day of hospitalized children by bringing them comic books. We recognize how difficult it can be spending any amount of time in a medical facility and try to offer a diversion from an unpleasant time. We often bring costumed "superheroes" to help deliver the comics and we take the time to visit with everyone available. We have als
o found these visits to be quite a treat for the young siblings of ailing children, as they often feel just as isolated as the patient themselves. Through our mission we have also found this as an opportunity for comic book collectors to donate some of the comics they love, thus sharing the world of comic books with an audience that may have never found them- cultivating a new generation of comic book lovers. This also provides the general comic community with an avenue to show charity- enriching their lives as well.
