Chelsea's Closet mission is, “to inspire hope and healing through dress up and play”. 

The dress up program serves up to 75 seriously ill children each month and up to 900 children per year at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital and Randall Children’s Hospital at Legacy Emanuel.  

At the hospitals children pick their new costume, get dressed and parade around the ward ending in the play room for activities, crafts and snacks.  For several children this is the only chance to get out of their room for the day and forget for a few moments the struggles they are going through.

The Chelsea Hicks Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization.
