Lucky Painted Rocks for Cancer Patients

CLOSED: This opportunity is temporarily closed to submissions. If you started working on or before Friday, August 9, 2024, then you are welcome to submit anytime, if needed. Otherwise, we recommend you hold on to the items until we have more time to distribute the ones we’ve been receiving. Thank you for your support!

1 painted rock may receive 1 service hour

Help spread hope and positivity to cancer patients through beautifully painted rocks. Each rock will be carefully designed with uplifting messages, vibrant colors, and lucky symbols to bring joy and encouragement to those facing challenging times.

NOTE: We can only accept rocks about 2-3 inches in size (about the palm of your hand). Larger rocks will not be suitable for our care kits. Thank you for your understanding!

How to Get Started

  • Brainstorm designs that include positive messages such as "Stay Strong," "You're Brave," and symbols like hearts, stars, and rainbows that signify hope and luck.
  • As with our other service projects, you are welcome to work from the comfort of your home, with your colleagues at the office, or with your friends at school! Paint rocks based on your own designs or check out our recommended tutorials and images below. Each rock will be unique, reflecting the volunteer's creativity and heartfelt messages. Sealing is optional.
  • Once painted and dried, pack your rocks and follow the submission steps here. They will then be distributed to cancer patients in hospitals, treatment centers, and support groups through Kits to Heart's cancer care kits.
