Our mission is rooted in bringing joy to young people who are facing difficult health challenges as well as stress, anxiety, isolation, and boredom. Rather than focusing on a diagnosis or prognosis, our focus is on treating the youth we serve as the creative kids and teens that they are, and on learning about their diverse interests and abilities.
Since 2006, Wonder Connection has been using natural science activities as tools to elicit positive emotions in hospitalized children and teens, to increase their science competence, and to build enthusiasm for science and nature. Wonder Connection is 100% funded through private grants and donations.
