The Little Saint Nick Foundation (LSNF) inspires kids in local communities to give back to kids in need. We do this by providing simple Gift Bags to kids as they enter the hospital made by other kids. There is a special connection between kids of all ages that you can’t duplicate, and a simple act of kindness amplifies this connection to a deeper meaning of giving.
LSNF was founded in 2004 by Raymond Mohler, Jr., at age six. Ray had a scary hospital experience as a child but was able to leave the hospital after one day. Feeling fortunate that he did not have a life-threatening nor permanent disease, but rather one that is treatable and fully recoverable, Ray decided he needed to give back to the kids whom he left behind at the hospital who were not as fortunate as he was. Ray’s mission – even at his young age – was to help relieve the fear, anxiety, and isolation experienced by children related to a child’s hospital visit.
