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. 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.
