The Penguin Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to
bringing magic to critically ill children (affectionately called "sick
kids").
Our goals are to:
- Teach kids to entertain their peers and loved ones
- Promote personal growth through performance and
- Help sick kids envision a world of possibility
Many children face injury and disease that necessitate extended hospital
stays. We believe it is possible to enrich the quality of this
experience by giving the individual the opportunity to learn and perform
magic tricks. Such a challenge can help build
self-confidence, enhance social development, and reinforce a
connection with peers, loved ones, and society.
The Penguin Foundation is one source of support for hospitals and other
charitable organizations dedicated to helping sick kids.
We work mainly by donating time, magic tricks and instructional DVDs
to hospitals around the world. Since our financial resources are modest in
comparison to societal needs, we focus on helping to create moments of
joy. We hope these proud and magical moments, like the moment a child
performs his or her first magic trick, will enrich the time spent in the
hospital and possibly even develop into a meaningful hobby.
The Penguin Foundation is an Independent, nonprofit, non-governmental
organization. The funds derive from Penguin Magic, Inc. a Nevada Corporation.
If you are part of an organization that could use a Penguin
Foundation donation of magic supplies, please contact us. We'd love the
opportunity to help.
