🌟 Creating moments of magic is at the heart of everything we do, and it's amazing to see the impact our AMoM JMU volunteers have on the communities they serve. Hearing how our characters helped kids feel more excited and confident at the 5K and Open House reminds us of the power of connection and inclusion. We’re proud to partner with incredible organizations to make a difference, one smile at a time. Thank you to everyone who helps bring our mission to life! 💫💜 #MissionDriven #CommunityImpact #AMoMJMU #A MomentOfMagic

Improving the quality of life of vulnerable & underserved children through creative programming led by college students
About us
A Moment of Magic is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to improve the quality of life of vulnerable and underserved children and inspire them to be brave, strong, and fearless through fun and engaging social wellness activities. Every 60 seconds, a child requires medical care. 1 out of 5 children experience a mental health condition in a given year. Children facing chronic medical conditions are 7x more likely to experience a mental health event. The most prominent and powerful coping mechanism in childhood is play. Creating moments of fun, empowering experiences for children decisively contributes to emotional, mental well-being, self-confidence and self-esteem. We partner with more than 300 hospitals and NPO's to provide creative play experiences to aid in the mental health of children we serve. Since 2014, we have created A Moment of Magic to more than 110,000 children in need.
