Frequently Asked Questions

Play For The Kids™ is a fundraising activity that unites the Four Diamonds community nationwide to help conquer childhood cancer.

This is a celebration of children’s joy and how kids have a magical way of finding delight in everything they do. Four Diamonds supporters of all ages are playing like kids – hosting fundraisers like kickball tournaments and cooking contests – to raise money for world-class cancer care and life-saving research. 

Play For The Kids^TM is underway and culminates in celebration in the month of September—Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

Funds raised through Play For The Kids™ benefit Four Diamonds and help ensure that kids who face cancer now and in the future have everything they need, including financial support, expert medical care and access to the latest breakthroughs in childhood cancer research.

We invite you to choose an activity and register as a team or as an individual. To get started,

1. Choose an activity that sounds the most fun for you or your group.

2. Register and set a fundraising goal. $100 gets you a T-shirt!

3. Raise a minimum of $100 to help ensure that kids fighting cancer have everything they need.

There is no cost to register for Play For The Kids™, but we do encourage you to set a fundraising goal of at least $100 and ask your family and friends to support you with donations, For The Kids®!

Every dollar makes a difference, but we encourage each supporter to raise at least $100, which earns you a Play For The Kids™ T-shirt. Remember, if you reach your goal, you can always increase it to help more kids! You are not financially committed to the goal you set and you can adjust it at any time.

Once you raise a minimum of $100, you will receive a confirmation email requesting your mailing address. We will then mail your T-shirt to you within two weeks.

While you are NOT able to credit a specific Four Diamonds Mini-THON^®, you can credit a specific THON™ organization (and be included in their total THON Weekend) after choosing to support THON during the registration process.

If you or your supporter writes a check, have them make it out to Four Diamonds with your name or team name in the memo line. All cash and check donations can then be sent to us for deposit:

Four Diamonds
Attn: Play For The Kids
P.O. Box 852
Hershey, PA 17033

Our team will deposit your cash and check donations when they arrive at our office. As long as your name or team name is mentioned on the check and it’s noted that the funds benefit Play For The Kids™, they will be allocated to your Play For The Kids™ fundraising page. Because of mailing and processing times, please allow about two weeks for those offline donations to be reflected on your fundraising page.
