What an unforgettable night! 🏀✨

Thanks to the incredible generosity of the New York Knicks and the Garden of Dreams Foundation, Sunrise families had the opportunity to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden.

Experiences like these create moments of joy, connection, and lasting memories for children with cancer, their siblings, and their families. Thank you for making our families feel so special and for giving them the chance to be part of one of the biggest nights in sports.

We are so grateful for your partnership and generosity. 💙🧡

Last summer, our friend Jesse Solomon brought the cast of Bravo's Summer House out to Sunrise Day Camp – Long Island for a day of friendship bracelets, sports, and a whole lot of joy with our campers.

Jesse has become a true friend of Sunrise. His own cancer journey shaped his commitment to giving back, and watching him share that spirit with our kids was something we won't forget.

Tune in tonight, Tuesday May 5th at 8 PM on Bravo, to see Sunrise on Summer House. Check out the sneak peek here:

At Sunrise Day Camps, children with cancer and their siblings can feel something they rarely do elsewhere — completely normal and fully included.

As Deddy Paz, lead researcher from Tel Aviv University’s School of Public Health, shares on the Sunrise Magic Makers Podcast:
“The focus is not on the illness. The focus is on being kids — surrounded by counselors who make sure they’re safe and having fun.”

Deddy led the landmark study confirming that this environment of joy and inclusion measurably improves children’s resilience and emotional well-being.
