We believe all children should experience the magic of Broadway. If they are unable due to illness, Broadway Hearts will bring the magic to them.
Broadway Hearts is a not-for-profit organization bringing professional Broadway performers, music and joy to the extraordinary kids in treatment at children’s hospitals nationwide.

Our Values
Heart - The foundation of all that we do. And our volunteers are at the heart of our Foundation. Their generosity of spirit, and golden voices make a lasting difference in children’s lives across the nation.
Enjoyment - Seeing a child in treatment light up with joy when they hear a favorite song, start to singalong and smile, is the foremost reason we look forward to each visit.
Awareness - As professional Broadway performers, knowing how the power of music can unite, lift and heal, we feel honored to be allowed to share this gift with these inspirational children
Reach - We are always looking for new ways to inspire and enhance the lives of the children we visit and we hope to continue expanding our reach until we are on every child’s screen, in every hospital, worldwide.
Trust – The scientific evidence behind music’s extraordinary power to help heal, is a major driving force in this Foundation.
