Calling
All Heroes!

A Comic Book Can Change a Child's Day.
Yours Can Be the One That Does.

​​Help Put COmic Books, Stories, and Smiles in to the hands of Kids in hospitals.

Every day, children across the country face hospital stays that are scary, lonely, and long. Comic Books for Kids sends them something better than a waiting room — a world to escape into, a hero to root for, and a story that's entirely their own.

Stories Go Where They're Needed Most

A hospital stay can take so much from a child — routines, school, friends, and the feeling of a normal day. A comic book can't fix that. But it can offer a few hours of adventure, laughter, and imagination.

 

And sometimes, that's exactly enough.

 

Comic Books for Kids partners with donors, comic shops, publishers, volunteers, and hospitals to get age-appropriate comics into the hands of children who need them. No cost to hospitals. No cost to families. Just good stories, delivered with care.

Every Hero Has a Role to Play

You don't need a cape. You just need to care.

Here's how people like you make the mission happen every day.

Donate Comic Books!

Have comics, graphic novels, or kid-friendly stories taking up shelf space? Put them to work.

 

Your donation can become a child's favorite book.

Make a Financial Gift!

Cash donations fund the shipping, supplies, and sorting that keep comics moving.

 

Every dollar goes directly toward getting books where they belong.

Request Comics for Your facility!

Child life specialists, pediatric care teams, and approved organizations can request comics for children in their care.

 

The process is simple, and the books are always free.

Host a Collection Drive!

It's easy to organize and deeply meaningful to the kids who benefit.

The Real Heroes

Every donation writes the next page of someone's story — a kid discovering a new favorite hero, a service member unwinding with an old favorite. Take a look at the smiles you help create, then join the story yourself.

Supported by the Best in the Business

CB4K's 2026 industry supporters include some of the most recognized names in comics and pop culture — because the people who make these stories believe in getting them to the kids who need them most.

Comics Saved Her Life. She's Sure of It.

Dani Soncasie spent most of her childhood in a hospital bed. Born with multiple orthopedic disabilities, she had surgeries every year from birth through age 16 — and at nine years old, she was three years into her longest stay, in pain, scared, and far from her family.

 

Then a local comic shop owner dropped off a box at the hospital. Dani spotted The Huntress on top of the pile, scooped up an armful, and wheeled back to her room.

 

From that moment, she had somewhere to go. For a girl who couldn't leave her hospital bed, comics gave her worlds to escape into — and the imagination to build her own. That little girl is now a published comic creator.

"I believe those comic books saved my life. And I truly believe they have saved thousands of others."

— Dani Soncasie, comic creator and CB4K supporter
