With Children’s Champions on hiatus this year, we introduced the 2021 SparkWonder campaign. This year, we are building a New Fitness Zone at Joel Davis Park in East Palo Alto. Thanks to your generosity, we will break ground and cement a legacy of fitness and fun in East Palo Alto!

Our mission is to create moments of wonder that spark a lifetime of possibility.
December 2021 (Date TBD)
This past year, Holiday Heroes went virtual with an amazing online event with a VIP component. We delivered Wonder boxes to guests and Be-A-Hero boxes to families in need. Both types of boxes included fun Holiday Heroes activities and surprises – and for the ones donated to vulnerable families, we included essential items (such as grocery gift cards, toiletries, gas cards, non-perishable food). Details on our 2021 event will be announced later this year.
Returning in Spring 2022
Children’s Champions is a fun, family-friendly event benefiting underserved children in the Bay Area. Make fitness fun with sports drills, clinics, and demonstrations with Stanford athletes, arts and crafts, face painting, balloons, and the opportunity to take photos with professional team athletes and mascots and more.
The Corporate Experiences program provides virtual “field trips” for high school students to teach them about entry level roles in STEM fields. Students get a behind-the-scenes tour of STEM corporations that are making a difference in their communities and the chance to meet relatable employees in a variety of entry level roles.
To celebrate WWFC’s 25th Anniversary in 2019, we sponsored 25 joy-filled events for at-risk kids in the Bay Area. Our mission is to create moments of wonder that spark a lifetime of possibility and joy. Join us in continuing to celebrate and support these special events. Help us bring a joyful experience to an underserved child and ignite hope in their hearts.
