A huge shout out and thank you to Justin Diggins and Michelle Smallridge for representing Plattsmouth (NE) Harvest Festival!
They organized a fun and unique fundraiser for Harrison's Playmakers-Omaha: A Mullet growing contest!
Here they are at our recent Donor Appreciation Breakfast in Omaha handing Harrison a check for $2895! This will go a long way in helping Harrison fulfill his vision of our "Inclusion Revolution"!
Thank you for supporting us!

Harrison’s Playmakers- Omaha continues to give back to the community thanks to the generosity of the mom of two of our favorite Playmakers! A big thank you to her!!

Dr. Megan Miller dropped by to pick up the donated 116 plushies to take to Boys Town Pediatrics. Imagine how comforting it will be for the young patients to have a furry friend with them as they undergo their medical checkups and procedures!

Happy World Compliment Day! 💙✨

Today we want to give a very special shoutout to two people who pour their hearts into everything they do! Our Chief Operating Officer, Paul Phillips, and Director of Operations in Omaha, Minneapolis, and New Jersey, Tammie Phillips.

Not only are they incredible leaders, but they are also Harrison’s parents and the co-founders of Harrison’s Playmakers. Their vision, compassion, and tireless dedication are the reason this organization continues to grow and impact so many families.

We are so grateful for the countless hours, the behind-the-scenes work, the big ideas, and the even bigger hearts. Harrison’s Playmakers is what it is because of you.

Today (and every day), we celebrate you. 💙

Harrison Phillips

We recently celebrated Harrison's 30th birthday in a unique way by turning the tables and giving 200 of our Minnesota Playmakers a shopping spree to buy gifts for themselves! Harrison arranged for Scheel's in Eden Prairie to support us with $50 gift cards for those attendees with special needs or developmental differences Thursday, January 22, 2026!

And, of course, everyone got to spend some time with Harrison and have some birthday cake.

Our pay-it-forward partner was The Bond Between animal shelter and our Harrison's Playmakers - Minnesota donated over $1200! Those that supported this cause truly understand the Harrison's Playmakers tenet of giving back to society when we can!

Many thanks to the families that provided pictures of their experience that night so we could share with everyone!
