Community Connections

Cookies with Santa

We had the pleasure of sponsoring and joining a festive holiday party for St. Joseph Children’s Hospital, Chronic Complex Clinic, where children enjoyed cookies, songs, and a special visit from Santa. Even Dr. Plascencia came by to see Santa and all the children.

Mission Mondays at Altar'd State

Through the end of January 2026, you can help Purple Playas by shopping at Altar’d State, where 10% of net proceeds on Mondays will be donated to our cause. We are forever grateful for this 3rd year of loving support.

The Heart of Purple Playas Holiday SMILES

Purple Playas Holiday SMILES was born out of a deep desire to bring joy and comfort to children with rare and chronic medical conditions. Our hope is to create unforgettable experiences and lasting memories for these children and their families. Through our annual toy/gift drive and our donations of gas and food gift cards, we have touched the lives of countless families across Florida, spreading smiles and hope during the holiday season. Our commitment to this cause is unwavering, and with the support of our community, we continue to expand our reach and impact.

Community Support

We love when local businesses amplify our impact.
