In Memory of Eli

Easter for Eli was created in memory of Elias “Eli” Garrett, a little boy whose joy continues to reach others today.

What We Do

We deliver bags, gifts, and moments of joy to children spending holidays or time in hospitals.

Why It Matters

Children in hospitals spend time in rooms that don’t feel like home. For a moment, we can change the room.

In Memory of Eli

Easter for Eli was founded in memory of Elias “Eli” Garrett, who spent much of his early life in the hospital and passed away just days before his fourth birthday.

The first baskets were for Eli.

Today, those gifts are delivered as bags to children and families in hospital rooms across the country.

From Donations to Delivery

What started with a few baskets for Eli has grown into a coordinated effort across multiple states. Donations are collected, sorted, packed, and delivered to children’s hospitals, Ronald McDonald Houses, and care facilities across the country.

90+ drop-off locations across PA, MD, and WV

Delivered to 57 children’s hospitals and facilities in 27 states
