Open Heart Magic is Bring Magic to Kids in Hospitals! Same volunteers, same Bedside Magic, and the same young patients finding a reason to laugh during the toughest hospital stays.
The role is about much more than performing tricks. It’s about connecting with a child, meeting them where they are at, and bringing laughter to their hospital stay.
Our 115 runners took on the 2026 Chicago Marathon to raise funds for kids in hospitals, bringing months of training, fundraising and determination to the starting line. And they weren’t doing it alone.
